What do we mean by 'Technites' anyway?
Technités is Greek for those things we have made.
A close word is 'artificial' but where that has a negative meaning, we Technites celebrate the practical application of science and creativity that has produced so many wondrous inventions that even today profoundly improve our lives.
Yes, "Technites" is meant to be the semi-opposite of "Luddites" but that said, many of us who love technology also keep a healthy fear/skepticism of loosing the very creativity, progress and em-betterment of society that inspired many of these great inventions, as we get overwhelmed with an ever faster paced and face-less life driven by technology.
If we can then, let us roll all of that up at once into the meaning of "Technites": People who promote the learning, creativity, inspiration and progress towards a better life fostered by human invention.
Or to oversimplify -
Clockwork is Cool!
