"(Das) Jenseits des  Konstruktivismus"

Radikaler Konstruktivismus (http://www.univie.ac.at/constructivism/),
Systemtheorie und Kybernetik zweiter Ordnung haben uns die enorme
Kontingenz und Redundanz sowohl von wissenschaftlichen Beschreibungen als
auch von wissenschaftlichen  Problemloesungs-Strategien vor Augen gefuehrt.
Nachdem nun durch Ian Hacking und Josef Mitterer auch noch
konstruktivistische Ansaetze de-konstruiert wurden, stellt sich die Frage:
Was bleibt eigentlich noch uebrig außer den Ruinen unserer Denktradition?
Sind non-dualistische oder triadisch Weltbilder der naechste  Schritt?  
     (english: (The) Beyond (of) Constructivism:  Radical constructivism
(http://www.univie.ac.at/constructivism/), systems theory and second order
cybernetics leave us with an enormous contingency and redundancy of
scientific  descriptions as well as of finding the best path in solving
problems. After Ian Hacking, Josef Mitterer and others also deconstructed
the constructivists, what is left except the ruins of western thought? Is a
non-dualistic or triadic world-view the next logical step?)


Dr. Stefan  Weber (http://www.sbg.ac.at/autojour) is a  media
epistemologist from Salzburg, he wrote "Die Dualisierung des Erkennens"
(http://www.amazon.de/exec/obidos/ASIN/3851652452/028-7535875-4491013)
("The Dualisation of Cognition") and edited "Was konstruiert Kunst?"
(http://www.amazon.de/exec/obidos/ASIN/3851653572/028-7535875-4491013)
("What Constructs Art?"; both Vienna, Passagen Verlag) amongst others. His
current project is called "CyberPoiesis" (University of Applied Arts
Vienna, Prof. Manfred Faßler).

"SAMPLEMINDS - Instant-Zeit und Instant-Raum als Status quo des Steady
State. Über attraktive Attraktoren und atavistische Avatare"

Die sogenannte "Steady State Theory" von Fred Hoyle stellte ein
astrophysikalisches Modell dar, das eine zeitlose Neubildung von Materie
annahm, welche die Leere zwischen den auseinanderdriftenden Galaxien stetig
ausfuellt. Auch wenn dieses Modell fuer die Beschreibung des realen Kosmos
seine Gueltigkeit verloren hat, hat es eine neue Relevanz in Bezug auf den
Cyberkosmos bzw. das Netz erlangt. Seit Entstehung des ARPANET (=Cyber Big
Bang) fuellt sich die interstellare/interhostale Leere des digitalen Raumes
mit astronomischen Datenmengen und generiert neue Dimensionen. Was bedeuten
"Life After History", "Digital Cocooning", "Gunafa", "R.O.S.E.=Realtime
Operating System Environment" im Kontext vernetzter Welten, wie sampeln
sich in ihnen Identitaeten und welche Parameter veraendern unser
Verhaeltnis zu Raum, Zeit und letztendlich zu uns selbst, unserem Koerper
und anderen Menschen und Umweltsystemen?
      (english: "SAMPLEMINDS - Instant-Time & Instant-Space as status quo
of Steady State. About attractive attractors & atavistic Avatars."The so
called "Steady State Theory" by Fred Hoyle is an astrophysic model, which
believed in a timeless renewal of matter, where the void in between
drifting galaxies gets filled steadily. Even if this model did lose its
validity for the description of the real cosmos, it gained new relevance
concerning the cybercosmos, the net. Since the origin of the ARPANET
(=Cyber Big Bang) the interstellar/interhostal void of the digital space
gets filled with astronomic amounts of data & generates new dimensions.
What means "Life After History", "Digital Cocooning", "Gunafa",
"R.O.S.E.=Realtime Operating System Environment" in the context of
networked worlds, how sample identities themselves in there & what
parameters change our relationship to space, time und finally to ourselves,
our bodies, other people & ecosystems ?

Dr. Thomas Feuerstein is a media artist &- theorist. among diverse projects
he co-organizes the artspace <medie.kunst.tirol> in innsbruck/austria. His
homepage is http://www.t0.or.at/~thomas.feuerstein
