Paradigm & Truisms Creation.
ANSWER
Theorem: “What if we redefine the term ‘efficiency’ in our manufacturing process, focusing on sustainability and environmental effect rather than speed and cost reduction? This paradigm indicates that sustainable practices can be more exemplary and innovative than the conventional understanding, which holds that quick production is the ultimate goal.
Truisms:
“Innovation frequently results from challenging accepted norms.”
Sustainability ought to be a top priority in contemporary industry.
It is myopic to pursue efficiency at the expense of the environment.
“Acquiring new paradigms necessitates flexibility to change.”
“Crisis and challenges open doors for innovation.”
Cross-disciplinary cooperation improves problem-solving, according to research.
“For progress, the status quo must be reexamined.”
“Breakthroughs can result from continuous improvement.”
“Fixing one issue may reveal answers to others,”
“Open-ended solutions are required for complex problems.”
“Fields that intersect can reveal unexpected insights.”
“Exemplary practices encourage imitation by others.”
What we consider to be “truth” can change throughout time.
“Speculative thinking frequently gives rise to innovation.”
“Unusual problems call for imaginative thinking.”
“Global concern is shared on the issue of environmental responsibility.”
“Taking the big picture into account involves thinking about long-term effects.”
“Challenges inspire us to venture into uncharted waters.”
“Complex issues require an open mind to solve them,”
“A single paradigm shift signals the beginning of transformative change.”
You are welcome to modify these truisms to meet your own paradigm or experiment. The fundamental concepts and tenets that direct your work and thought should be reflected in them.
QUESTION
Description
Please share your paradigms and truisms here for next week.
A) Based on all the projects and experiments you have done, or concerns and big questions you have in your work, define your paradigm. You will need to develop this using the 6 criteria that briefly talked about last class. Get abstract and push the concepts so that they produce a “crisis;” remember this is speculative to some extent, best asked in the form of a “what if….” question. Speculate about how your claim could exceed your current practice. Write it down as a phrase or action based process. What is the big picture we are getting from your practice.
The six criteria for a paradigm are:
1. it produces a crisis – a rupture
2. It is not necessarily true
3.it must be exemplary
4. sufficiently unprecedented
5. open ended with lots of problems
6. joins other fields or what we thought to be a very unrelated problem
B) 15-20 Truisms
and here is the example
Hey everyone,
Truisms and my Paradigm are included in Microsoft Word doc below. Please feel free to leave comments and thoughts, very curious to hear from everyone:)
See ya’ll soon,
