Lore EA technology
1610s, "a discourse or treatise on an art or the arts"
from Latinized form of Greek tekhnologia "systematic treatment of an art, craft, or technique"
originally referring to grammar
from PIE *teks-na- "craft" (of weaving or fabricating)
from suffixed form of root *teks- "to weave, to fabricate"
circa 1964, "high technology"
1972, short form: "high-tech"
"A technique... such as a technology. A simple and efficient technique to spread the magic. The word incantation comes from Late Latin. It is the art of enchanting. Incantare is to bewitch, to cast or fix a spell upon. Upon whom?
The viewer ― by way of technique, or technology. Obviously that says nothing of the particular technique or technology. It does not necessarily incriminate them. A hammer can be used to build a house, or to smash a window. It’s a tool. The same goes for various techniques and technologies, with... some exceptions."
