2. 6. A Critique of the Live Project

   Author : James Benedict Brown; Ruth Morrow; Queen’s University Belfast Architecture & Civil Engineering School of Planning; []
   Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; education; pedagogik;

   Abstract : This thesis develops a critique (understood as “a detailed analysis and assessment of something,” Oxford English Dictionary, 2010a) of the live project by theoretically contextualising live project pedagogies. Unlike preceding doctoral research into the live project (Sara, 2004; and to a lesser extent Carpenter, 2004 and Findlay, 1996), this thesis does not adopt a position of advocacy regarding live projects; but considers them as opportunities for architectural educators to experiment with the discipline and its pedagogies.

   Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Lacan; psychoanalysis; information systems research; critique; fantasy;

   Abstract : Against the deeply ingrained belief that technology is instrumental and neutral, this thesis argues that our relation to technology is inextricably bound up with fantasies. But what is the nature of these fantasies and where do we find them? Are they strictly reserved to the domain of Science Fiction, or can we also find them in more mundane contexts, like the business organization? These are some of the central questions of the present study. READ MORE

   Abstract : Against a backdrop of feminist and social scientific research on sex, female embodiment, and normality this thesis aims to discern how young women, who in adolescence have learned that their bodies are developing in ways considered ‘atypical’ for the female sex, make sense of their bodies and their situation. In focus are the ways in which the women make sense of and negotiate female embodiment; how they, particularly in stories about their interactions with others, position their embodied selves; and how norms and beliefs about sexed embodiment, heterosexual practice, and in/fertility are strengthened and challenged in the interviewees’ sense-making.
