a stone in the middle | contemporary techno-temporal innovation

I understand techno- from the Greek τέχνη. It could mean arts or craft or both.  I also understand -temporality as relative to time, in many ways. It is also a form of electronic dance music, I heard, but this is also relative to time. So what is techno-temporality? I think of the term as related to the digitization of our times and to the way our apperception of time is (re)built. In that case, isn’t a contemporary techno-temporality a pleonasm? When else in history did we experience an age of digitization prior to now? Could digitalization ever precede the invention of the digital? The artists of the show share the same space in the same time. And this seems already enough to know. Together their works engage into a never ending techno-dance that, ultimately, leaves us questioning the floor we thought we were dancing on. But was it ever a floor in the first place?
