  • Shmirat Habrit
    ב"ה SHMIRAT HABRIT “Here I want to awaken you to a painful and shocking matter about which many people err. There are many people who refrain from speaking about these things under the pretext of modesty. May Heaven help us! In such a fallen and licentious generation as ours, where everything is exposed without shame in the open - to speak about holiness and modesty – this is considered an affront to modesty?! Can there be a greater deception on the part of the evil inclination than this?! On the contrary, it is an absolute obligation to speak about these matters in public!” The Torah giant, Rabbi Aharon Cutler, of blessed memory. 1 בס"ד SHMIRAT HABRIT by Tzvi Fishman SHMIRAT HABRIT - FOUNDATION OF AM YISRAEL For some time now, the elder Sages of the Kabbalah in the Holy Land have warned that, to a large measure, a root cause of the tribulations we are facing is the sexual immorality rampant in our midst. Women’s fashions, imported from Europe and America, cause the holy Jewish soul to shudder. In addition, it is becoming impossible to approach a newsstand without being confronted with the photos of sexy models on magazine covers. Our Sages have repeatedly warned that looking at immodestly dressed women and forbidden images stains the soul with a terrible pollution. Not to mention the lewdness on television, in the movies, the pornography of the Internet, and now via cellular phones, may G-d save us. Parents! Do you know what your children are watching? To make matters worse, when a man, or teenager, looks at immodest photographs of women, or erotic videos on the Internet, he is often brought to masturbate, or to spill semen in vain, which is 2 considered the most severe transgression in the Torah (Shulchan Aruch, Aven HaEzer, 23:1).

Abstract: The presentation utilizes the sensibility of technoetic aesthetics in order to demonstrate an interpretive study of imagery issuing from contemporary cultural and technological innovative products and events, such as Blade Runner 2049 and SpaceX Starman, the Tesla Roadster launch. It refers in particular to the theme of horse, horseman, and rider depicted explicitly or implied through aesthetic metaphors. These images seem to conjure current apocalyptic and revelatory meanings as well as amplify a sense of collective longings for transcendence. 1. Introduction In this paper I utilize the sensibility of technoetic aesthetics in order to demonstrate an interpretive study of imagery issuing from contemporary cultural and technological innovative products and events, in particular the film Blade Runner 2049 and SpaceX Starman, the Tesla Roadster launch. I reflect on the theme of horse, horseman, and rider which is depicted explicitly or implied through aesthetic metaphoric imagery and vistas generated by innovative technological artifacts, systems, and their performance. These images seem to conjure current apocalyptic concerns, on one hand, and revelatory meanings with a sense of hope, on the other hand, which, together invoke collective longings for transcendence.
