Abstract

This research is a reflection, a result from author’s contemplative process, in reading one of the texts written by one of the western philosopher at the end of modernity, Friedrich Nietzsche. The reading itself, mainly, was initially started from Nietzsche’s own writing in a form of excerpts collected in an anthology entitled Self-Interest. This research wishes to show how Nietzsche responds to existing understanding on traditional morality, which to him is no more than a kind of slave morality. Nietzsche, with his own view on morality is basically orbiting to one of his main theses, Will to Power (der Wille zur Macht); other morality related concerns like self and self-interest are also undetachable to this Will to Power. Within the context of traditional morality, thing like self-interest is considered taboo in contrast with altruistic behaviour (self-less behaviour by emphasizing concerns to others). For Nietzsche, this kind of morality is prevailed necessarily because we’re discourageous in facing the arrival of nihilism. From Nietzsche’s perspective, an immoralist, a person with self-interest (within the context of traditional morality) is a ‘moralist’ him/herself. The one who affirms to nihilism, the one who possesses master morality. At the end of this research, the author gives his own response regarding to his reading on Nietzsche and to aim pragmatic value from this research might be impossible. What might be possible is one can aim at achieving different perspectives on morality and self-interest through Nietzsche’s perspective.

Abstract

The content of this article is an attempt to show that the word research in traditional sense (within the Cartesian scheme) is hostile to design activity. It will reduce the process of design into a merely fix mechanical process, burying the aspect of imagination, creativity, and more importantly proposing in it that is a crucial aspect to design. This imposition might indiscipline (in a formal academic sense) design as a discipline in human sciences. In order to achieve this, the article is divided in three sections. The first section will discuss what scientific research is and what traditionally presupposed in it: objective, neutral, and a-historical; simply the disinterestedness of research. As for the second, epistemological concerns on traditional scientific research from two philosophers of science will be discussed: Thomas S. Kuhn and Paul K. Feyerabend. As for the third, the closing section, an attempt to delineate design and what designers do in comparison to scientists’ will be discussed. It is how design and designers are different in their manners with traditional science and scientist.

Abstract

This writing is not an inquiry to classical philosophy per se but is an attempt to propose a dialogue. The content of this writing is a dialogue between classic realm of philosophical thought which is represented by Plato and the realm of thought from the end of modernity, which is represented by Friedrich Nietzsche. The proposed dialogue presented through this writing is not for the sake of permeating or exposing the dialogue, also, per se but is contextualized with the recent contemporary condition of academic world in general and design education in university in specific. What this writing tries to show and reflect is, first, a found similarity in Plato’s concept of education on natural born philosopher with Nietzsche’s übermensch. Secondly, there’s a sense of urgency for the features of übermensch within nowadays nihilistic society to arise. Manifested Übermensch is to embrace nihilism within prevailing stubborn condition of comodifying design higher education through formal templatization of creativity. This concern is relevant to Plato’s concept of education: it is not a matter of privatization through commodification, but since it is now, this might prepare a way for übermensch to emerge. Structurally, this writing is divided into three parts. The introduction reflects on contemporary condition of higher education (on design). Second, this article shares writer’s reflection of the similarities between Plato’s concept and Nietzsche’s on education. Lastly, it is to show the potentiality of Platonic approach on education to give birth to übermensch.

Abstract

This paper discusses philosophical framework of practice-based artistic research within the field of art and design in contrast with research in the natural and social science. It is stated that paradigm of artistic inquiry is ilustrated with the role of practicioner as researcher wherein subjectivity, involvement and reflexivity are acknowledged, while (k)nowledge is negotiated ? inter-subjective, context bound, and is a result of personal construction. Visual objects have been exhausting large amount of our physical and emotional energy in seeing it which certainly gives them a central role in contemporary ages. It is suggested that research could become part of the needs for experience, to inspire, or to collectively develop a profession. Recently, research as knowledge production has been increasing and gaining its interest within the creative art field. However, there is a foundation which underpins a research, at least some implicit philosophical assumptions of it, which serve as the basis of understanding of reality (ontology), and how to know and justify it (epistemology); and by explicating it, it is believed that scrupulous consideration of it may contribute practical benefits in conducting art and design research. In that regard, this paper presents ontological outlook of Heidegger and also epistemology of art of Merleau-Ponty ? which rises within phenomenological tradition ? as a philosophical framework which can serve as paradigmatic underpinning of artistic research, in contrast with objectivist approach already identical with research in general.

Abstract

Article is an outcome from writer?s reflection from his reading on Homo Sacer, Sovereign Power and Bare Life, a book by Giorgio Agamben, an Italian 20th century philosopher. The reading concerns with the three chapters which are Homo Sacer, The Ambivalence of The Sacred, and The Sacred Life, and also the preface of chapters. Generally, this article proposes two main things. First, Agamben?s description on Western modern political practice, developed from the Greek until today. Second, writer?s reflection on educational system in Indonesia, especially the higher education level in nowadays, through Agamben?s perspective. Structurally, article is divided into three parts. First, the Preface, is a general view to Agamben?s political thought which will stand as a background to the second part from this article, Homo Sacer. On the third part, Education as Bare Life, is writer?s reflection on higher education system in Indonesia borrowing the political perspectives from Agamben.
