The Technics and Culture

Technics refers to the practical skills, techniques, and methods people use to create and manipulate their environment, such as craftsmanship or technological processes. Culture encompasses the shared beliefs, values, customs, art, and social behaviors of a group. Together, technics shape how a society develops tools and technologies, influencing culture by enabling new ways of living, working, and expressing ideas. Conversely, cultural values guide which technics are valued or adopted. Understanding their relationship helps explain how societies progress and adapt through a combination of technical innovation and cultural meaning.
