This chapter discusses concretely the rhythmic mode of being which beings in general (things and events) exhibit in temporal unfolding. “Rhythm” indicates the autonomy of beings in temporal differentiation; disrespect of a being’s own rhythm can be found in the attempts to impose another rhythm on it while understanding or handling it. In Logic: The Question of Truth (1925–26), Heidegger’s interpretation of “transcendental time-determination” in Kant’s schematism shows that time in the originary sense has the structure of “unity in multiplicity”; while endowing this structure to intra-temporal and even extra-temporal phenomena, time withdraws itself to become the vanishing medium of all phenomena. Based on this understanding, we can interpret Schelling’s metaphysical account of “rhythm” in Philosophy of Art (1802–03) as describing a process by which a unity, otherwise abstract, extends itself into concrete and complicated unity by way of recurring units. In this sense, every being has its own rhythm, though beings may resonate with one another at the level of particular “waves” which a rhythm implies. This account is then affirmed with our lived experience in the present age: distraction, fragmentation, synchronization, acceleration, and procrastination attest to how easily we as subjects are “carried away” by the rhythms of all kinds of beings.
