Designed Epistemology

Designed Epistemology

Karbowski, Arthur; Fraher, Robert

Full Paper:

The reliance on linear, rational, Enlightenment philosophy to guide pedagogy and practice in knowledge creation, specifically in education and design, can sometimes lead to problems. This paper calls on Gödel’s incompleteness results to justify the use of design principles in building epistemology. An example of course design is examined using Jonas’ Research through Design framework (2014) and compared to Deleuze and Guattari’s idea of the rhizome. The question is raised whether philosophical and psychoanalytic theory can provide the framework for design theory.
