The entities that we perceive as parts of the hyperobject nature -stones, trees, rivers, insects- are, for the machine-Europe, masses of points without entity: without object. These points congregate and disintegrate freely in its vision: the algorithm knows nothing of the transcendences that engender being. Thus, the perspective of the animal-machine is grain, multiple and recombinable. An artificial perspectivism where each object is all objects, and therefore none: there are only grains of dust that change colour, fluttering in a plane of light. Each grain contains, potentially, multiple natures, as many as the algorithm wants. To perceive nature as the animal-machine does is to break with the notion of entity, of being, of body, of space, of flow. Of the world. Everything becomes crumbling.
