How is a machine? Machine is how we are, how we are with the world. How with we are. Machine is technical. In this sense we are machinic and machine is humane.
Machine is how we do, how we act. Performance as an act with place and time is how a machine is. Machine is performative. In this sense machine is temporal and time is machinic. Machine as acting and doing, as thought in act, is how time is.
When thought is care: machine is a technique of creation of difference, performance is art and value is meaning. When thought is use: machine is the technology of reproduction, performance is calculation and value is profit.  
Thinking the machine into the tool, the instrument, enslaved the machine. Enslaved it as the instrument of use with the function of production of usefulness. Enslaving the machine - we enslaved ourselves. And so we are trapped. Trapped with the machine in the machinic time that is determined into instrumental time of use. In the useful time of the use thought.
In the useful time of the use thought machine is a clock, memory and operator. Calculation feedback loop reducing all to calculable. Reproduction automata. There is no possibility of pure freedom in the instrumental time. No possibility of new in the useful operating system world and with the organized systemic memory.  
There are only probabilities of possible possibilities of production of production.  There is no freedom as act of impossibility, without forgetting. Forgetting the laws. Forgetting the laws of the logos of the technology. Freeing the machine. Freeing the place for the dream. To act a possibility from the impossible.
A machine of a dreamthought is in the dreamtimes. Its power is potential as impossibility. An impossibility acted as a body. A machine is a way with, way of acting with. Machine is magic. Magic of the magh of the makhana that is a machine.
