| Description | The theoretical study describes the issue of cyberspace, as an ontologically and epistemically serious phenomenon that changes the primary ways of grasping (human) existence and its realization. The advent of technology has resulted in a high-speed interconnection of all communicating actors, who are interconnected with each other, and this connection influences behaviour in a complex way. Floridi's concept of onlife of being, which connects the two worlds, appears to be the starting point for a suitable description of being in a world in which cyberspace plays an important role. In our proposed solution, we will talk about it about the corporeality and biological aspects associated with the structuring of knowledge. This transition from online and offline, on the one hand, to onlife, on the other, entails the need to fundamentally recapture the phenomenon of multiculturalism,which appears to be an essential thought construct that can serve to understand the world in which we experience onlife being. Multiculturalism is understood not as a phenomenon of a purely anthropocentric construct, but as a broader means of structuring knowledge in a world that is less and less distinguishable between technology and living objects. However, living organisms seem to have something that technology does not have and cannot have - a body that appears to be crucial to shaping experience. The study suggests a direction in grasping multiculturalism that transcends the subject-object paradigm and builds on experiential realism. |
