what do you see, think, feel, smell, hear, experience or understand?


to understand something is not to be able to define it or describe it. instead, taking something that we think we already know and making it unknown thrills us with its reality and deepens our understanding of it. kenya hara

knowledge + research + other dichotomous notions


what is knowledge?


what is knowledge ? a state of knowing ‌


what is knowledge? derived from early questions such as: why are we here? what is the meaning in our lives? what is the structure of the world what we live in?


what is knowledge? ‌. justified true belief or truth? It has been said that Socrates considered a number of theories as to what knowledge is, the last being that knowledge is true belief whose meaning explained or defined in some way = justified Thus for knowledge / design knowledge to be justified true belief: one must also have a good reason for doing so – in other words, it is justified.


what is knowledge ? a state of knowing ‌. how do we know ?


knowledge can be classified into a priori knowledge, which is obtained without needing to observe the world, and a posteriori or empirical knowledge, which is only obtained after observing the world or interacting with it in some way. "a priori" and "a posteriori" are used in philosophy to distinguish two different types of knowledge, justification, or argument: a priori knowledge is known independently of experience, and a posteriori knowledge is proven through experience. the phrases "a priori" and "a posteriori" are Latin for "from what comes before" and "from what comes later" (or, less literally, "before experience" and "after experience").


•I have hands … •my middle finger is longer than my ring finger, and it is longer than my little finger … •the tomato I'm holding is red all over … .. reasons for thinking each of these claims is true, but the reasons do not appear to derive from experience but one can apprehend the truth of these claims just by reflecting on their content.

Immanuel Kant said that a priori knowledge is “knowledge that is absolutely independent of all experience” (Kant 1787).


what is knowledge ? how do we know anything ?


what is knowledge ? how do we know anything ? we read it we are told it we observe it we just feel it - intuition? perception ? we just know it- instinct ? a hunch ? we know it ‌ tacit knowledge


what is knowledge ? how do we know anything ?

we experiment + we experience . It is our analytical interpretation and our understanding of experiments and/or experience from designing that leads to knowledge. Knowledge emerges from critical inquiry.


why is knowledge so important? where do we find knowledge today?


Troy Hurtubise


constructivists. constructivism is a view of philosophy that knowledge can only be created / constructed in our minds, and thus only exist in our minds. the world, environment and objects have information, but that information doesn’t become qualifiable knowledge until it is processed by the mind.


what is design knowledge ?

231 is a creative process through a systematic progression of research to reveal something to you that you do not already know and that is perhaps not known at all, so it becomes unique knowledge‌ new in the absolute sense 231 is to uncover and discover something new, to explore the unknown and to take ownership of your process and what your findings.
