| Summary: | If the protrusion-face constitutes a typical evolutionary feature of humans, the interfacial space (that currently is technological, too: the relational space unlocked by the interfaces) represents its psychic and social dimension: a protean not-space not easily catchable by the thought. Indeed, what do human faces express, presuming their unlimited mobility and differentiation that artificial interfaces try to imitate, deform and eventually erase? This transcendental work, on both sides of its particular and mysterious detectability, is for what? What’s its story? What’s its future, above all? Starting from two exemplary thinkers (Lévinas and Deleuze & Guattari) who reflected upon this issue, the article tries to reformulate those questions in the light of Sloterdijk’s spherology.
