Technology literally reversed that relationship making nature plastic and conformance to the wishes of the culture - and so an incubator of what the Greeks called hubris. If there is a contemporary substitute for the Kloroi will be something very different than tech.
Very interesting. My rough sense is that there isn't a technological substitute; it will take a revival of spirit. We saw this after the first wave of industrialization. Maybe it will happen again.
I think it will require recovering a lot of things that were jettisoned with classical ideas of education. C.S. Lewis’ Abolition of Man has the right diagnosis, the implied remedy is to understand ourselves as subject to a moral order that makes demands upon us, contra modernity.
If we understand prudence and praxis as the necessary precursor to contemplation and the wisdom that informs prudence and praxis, vocation can have a meaningful place in that orbit, and so a kloroi of a sort, provided it serves these ends and isn’t an end itself.
