As I note on the talk page for Indeterminacy_(philosophy), the notion of pharmakon needs to be defined separately. It is not a term that means "a concept that has some indeterminacy", as one might gather from the disambiguation page. The disambiguation page should point here, instead. A suitable one-line definition is:

"any treatment that is both a poison and a remedy"

therapeutics and attention[edit]

It's interesting (in the "media philosophy" example) to note that therapeutics means care, which Stiegler emphasizes is closely related to attention. So there's something a bit meta about a therapeutics addressed towards a pharmacology of attention. Arided (talk) 21:24, 19 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
