Abstract This research starts from the observation that Bernard Stiegler’™s general organology draws from the philosophical rethinking of the original practice of organology in musicology. Stiegler’™s main philosophical concepts that led to the establishment of general organology, as well as the trajectory of development of Stiegler’ general organology from his musical/musicological experience are discussed and explained. The main claim of this article is that the philosophical platform of general organology has an activist potential for the revitalization of the contemporary humanities and the transformation of the humanities into digital studies. This transformation takes place in the manner of two-level transcontextualization. The first level concerns the transcontextualization of the musicological organology into the general organology as a philosophical platform for understanding the phenomenological and ontological questions of a human being in the world mediated by digital technology. The second level concerns the activist potential of the general organology in relation to the humanities. The transformation of the humanities into digital studies is enabled through the transcontextualization of the general organology as the new, revitalized philosophical ground of the humanities that are dealing with the conditions of humanity in our contemporaneity. This means that digital studies involve not only the digital mediation of the knowledge, but researching that should be implemented in improving the humans' skills, knowledge, attention, and perceptive capabilities through digital technologies.

Este trabajo intenta esbozar la crítica que realiza el filósofo Bernard Stiegler a la cultura que ha devenido por la sociedad hiperindustrial de la época contemporánea. Stiegler establece una relación necesaria entre el hombre y la técnica que, desde una reflexión filosófica tradicional, ha privilegiado al hombre por encima de la técnica en la constitución de los sujetos. Desde el trabajo que hacemos en el Grupo de investigación de Bioética y Complejidad de la Universidad Militar Nueva Granada, creemos que la bioética debe buscar una sabiduría compleja que nos permita un posicionamiento diferente frente a los conocimientos tecnocientíficos y al neoliberalismo. Esto, de cara a los nuevos retos políticos y ambientales en la era planetaria, que es lo que Stiegler llama sociedad hiperindustrial. Para encontrar luces para pensar una economía política hoy, se abordarán algunos elementos del pen- samiento stigleriano - su mirada a la cultura y a la economía contemporánea- para comprender la individuación de los sujetos, frente a un futuro sostenible que sea posible.

Abstract French philosopher Bernard Stiegler inscribes himself in the tradition of critical theory. In this respect, the influence of Adorno and Horkheimer has been crucial to the development of his own understanding of cinema. Yet Stiegler reproaches his predecessors for not having stressed enough the positive virtues of cinema on culture. For Stiegler the industry of cinema is not simply a menace to the human mind, but a positive medium for its reinvention. It is in that sense that cinema is pharmacological, insofar as it can be either spiritually and culturally enhancing or destructive, depending on how it is acted on. As the article concludes, Stiegler's pharmacology of cinema invites us to take part in our cinematic cultural becoming through the revival of the figure of the amateur. But it does so at the risk of cultural snobbery. While Stiegler does not condemn the cinematic medium per se, he does express clear reservations on the potential of commercial cinema, the pharmacological critique of which remains to be thought.

resumo: Este artigo é uma introdução geral ao pensamento de Bernard Stiegler em torno da relação entre técnica e humano. Stiegler desconstroi a tradição filosófica que costumava separar technê e episteme com um enfoque histórico e materialista, a fim de provar como é impossível pensar a humanidade sem a técnica. Portanto, a relação não é de oposição, como a tradicional metafísica do espírito defende, mas composição, do modo como defendem Gilbert Simondon, Jacques Derrida, Andre Leroi-Gourhan e Gilles Deleuze.abstract: This paper is a general introduction to Bernard Stiegler's thinking about the relation between technique and human. Stiegler deconstructs the philosophical tradition that used to separate teckhnê and episteme with a historical and materialist approach in order to prove how it is impossible to think humanity without technique. Therefore, the relation is not one of opposition, like the traditional metaphysics of spirit defends, but one of composition, as thinkers like Gilbert Simondon, Jacques Derrida, Andre Leroi-Gourhan and Gilles Deleuze defend.

Abstract Introduction Research into factors influencing adherence to CBT-I and how adherence impacts treatment outcomes remains scarce. Through a systematic review, we aimed to determine how adherence is assessed; which factors predict adherence; and which treatment outcomes are predicted by adherence. Methods Included publications met the following criteria: adults with insomnia; an intervention of CBT-I, including sleep restriction (SRT) and/or stimulus control (SCT); a reported measure of adherence; and written in English. Results Final n=103 papers. Measures assessed either global adherence or adherence to specific components of CBT-I via questionnaires, sleep diaries, interviews, or actigraphy. Most common measures were sleep diary-derived CBT-I components for therapist-led studies, and module completion for digital studies. Twenty-eight papers (27.2% of total) examined predictors of adherence. Depression, pre- and post-session sleep, psychosocial support, and dysfunctional beliefs about sleep predicted adherence. Demographic variables, other psychological comorbidities, insomnia severity, and sleep questionnaires did not predict adherence. Twenty-eight papers (27.2%) examined whether adherence predicted treatment outcomes. Neither global adherence nor adherence to any specific component of therapist-led CBT-I reliably predicted sleep outcomes. For digital CBT-I, completion of treatment modules was linked to improvements in ISI, however there were only five studies. Conclusion There was a high degree of heterogeneity in how adherence was measured, and in predictors and outcome variables assessed. This heterogeneity likely explains why adherence does not appear to predict treatment outcome. The field needs to develop a standardised method for assessing each specific adherence construct to fully understand the role of adherence in CBT-I.

El texto trata sobre la desaparición del estudio en la Universidad, sobre todo en las Facultades de Humanidades, poniéndolo en relación con el final de la mentalidad alfabética (Iván Illich), con la cultura del humanismo (Bernard Stiegler), pero también y sobre todo con la transformación del espacio, del tiempo, de las materialidades y de los sujetos que constituían la vieja universidad desde sus orígenes medievales hasta el triunfo completo del capitalismo cognitivo y de la mercantilización del conocimiento.Lo que está acabando con el estudio es la subordinación de la Universidad al dispositivo “profesionalización” (con lo que supone de subordinación al mercado de trabajo), al dispositivo “investigación” (completamente mercantilizado) y al dispositivo “aprendizaje” (completamente individualizado). Enviado em: 30 de maio de 2016.Aprovado em: 01 de agosto de 2016.
