I took the first paragraph of Graham Harman’s Essay “On the Undermining of Objects” from the Re-Press publication “The Speculative Turn: Continental Materialism and Realism” and used Google Translate to translate it from English to German and back to English repeatedly.
Original:
The phrase ‘speculative realism’ is no longer beloved by everyone it describes, and may be used less often in the future. I still find it to be an effective term, one that draws wide attention to a fairly diverse set of philosophical programmes by pointing accurately to key similarities among them. Though it is always a badge of honour for intellectuals to refuse being stamped with any sort of label, other fields of human in- novation have a much stronger sense for the value of a brand name. The brand is not merely a degenerate practice of brainwashing consumerism, but a universally rec- ognized method of conveying information while cutting through information clutter. Coining specific names for philosophical positions helps orient the intellectual public on the various available options while also encouraging untested permutations. If the decision were mine alone, not only would the name ‘speculative realism’ be retained, but a logo would be designed for projection on PowerPoint screens, accompanied by a few signature bars of smoky dubstep music. It is true that such practices would invite snide commentary about ‘philosophy reduced to marketing gimmicks’. But it would hardly matter, since attention would thereby be drawn to the works of speculative re- alism, and its reputation would stand or fall based on the inherent quality of these works, of which I am confident.
Iteration 5:
The term “speculative realism” no longer loved describe it all and can be used less frequently in the future. I think it’s still to be an effective approach, one that on a fairly diverse set of philosophical programs point attention carefully distinguishes important similarities between them. While there is a badge of honor for intellectuals with any kind of label punching is are, in other spheres of human innovations have a much stronger sense of the value of a brand have to refuse. the brand is a degenerate practice consumption for transmitting information not only brainwashed but a generally accepted method because it cut through information clutter. Imprinting helps specific name for the philosophical positions to orient the intellectual public about the various options, but also untested permutations encouraging. If the decision were alone, I would not only get the name of the “speculative realism”, but is a logo through a few bars of signature smoky provided dubstep music to PowerPoint displays would accompany for playback. It is true, would “philosophy marketing gimmicks reduced” Invite that such practices aspersions on. But it would hardly matter since the attention would be drawn here to the work of the speculative return ism and their reputation would stand or fall, I am convinced, based on the intrinsic qualities of these works.

Iteration 5:
The phrase “speculative realism” describes it, and in the future will no longer loved by all that often. I was one of the philosophical similarities, the key word is still looking at the appearance of a fairly diverse set of effective programs, panoramas’m sure. Novation other parts of the wise man in a very strong sense of the value of the label for a brand name, which is always printed with the rejection of any sort of a badge of honor. In practice only deteriorate the brand consumerism brainwashing, but cut through the clutter of information, however, is not the method of conveying information to a universally rec- ognized. Think about the different options available to promote the philosophy of permutations to the east and try to learn the names and locations. The decision is “supposed” is designed for the name, but if one of mine some dubstep music, a logo, a signature smoky bars, PowerPoint projection screen to be retained. Its reputation, the reality of such practices, and the risk of re-Alism, “reduced marketing gimmicks”, I was invited to work, stand, or on the basis of that I am convinced that there is protection. In fact, the inherent quality of philosophy, but it is rarely the subject of snide commentary.
