Feedback from Pentalemma App:Johannes Bongers, a Dutch conceptual artist and founder of Boolean Works, has recently (late 2025) launched and updated several major "artistic-political" projects that address global crises through a lens of technology, social impact, and environmentalism.His work is currently centered on a framework he calls "Technotlogy," which uses art to critique how digital logic ("Boolean Logic") has homogenized human thought and social structures.1. Political Trade-offs: The Pentalemma GameA primary focus of Bongers' work this month is the Pentalemma Game, which entered its Beta phase on November 24, 2025. This educational and strategic "political game" is designed to model the impossible trade-offs of modern governance.The Conflict: The game identifies five competing "limits": the Nation State, Economic Globalization, Democracy, Earth's Crises (Environment), and Tech Dystopia.The Trade-off: Its core premise is that in the current global system, only two of these five ideals can be fully realized at once. Achieving democracy and environmental sustainability, for instance, may require sacrificing the current model of economic globalization or the absolute sovereignty of the nation-state.2. Social Impact & Geopolitics: "The Unholy Alliance 2025"
Bongers has recently been presenting a conceptual project titled "The Jewish Trilemma and the Unholy Alliance 2025."Social Impact: This work analyzes the "closed triadic structure" of Judaism, Zionism, and antisemitism. Bongers argues this structure finally creates a global logic of "shared enmity" rather than shared values.The "Internal Other": He specifically highlights the social impact on Palestinians, whom he describes as the "internal Other" caught within a grid of techno-capital and geopolitics, reduced to "bare life" and denied political subjectivity.Ethnostates: The work warns of a shift toward "ethnostates" and "sacred enmities," where identity and ideology fuse to erase political alternatives.3. Environmental Crises: The "Three Ecologies"
Bongers’ recent art emphasizes a "pan-ecological" approach based on Félix Guattari’s Three Ecologies: the Mind, the Social, and the Milieu (Environment).Planetary Limits:
Through his project SOOOS (a "sound-alarm" and artistic political party), he argues that the environmental crisis cannot be solved without simultaneously addressing the "homogenization of the human mind."Technological Exploitation:
He critiques "Boolean Technology" for treating the biosphere merely as a resource to be exploited. His work posits that the "Earth is screaming back" because current politics have ignored planetary limits in favor of short-term economic and technological growth.4. Recent Installations & Frameworks *Technotlogy.com:
Launched as an "Open Operating System" for art, it invites users to develop "apps" (artistic concepts) that challenge the "Technics of Thanatos"—a term he uses for the destructive nature of modern technology-driven politics, particularly in the context of the current U.S. political landscape. *Rhizomatic Time:
Recent sculptural projects, such as those featuring gold and platinum rhubarb leaves, attempt to bridge "micro-biological time" with "macro-cosmic events," encouraging a shift in human perception away from the frantic, notification-driven time of digital capitalism toward a more sustainable, "rhizomatic" sense of time."
