La materia contraataca: una tentativa objetológica

Abstract

Es necesario pensar el diseño desde una perspectiva posthumanista y materialista. Para ello se introduce una indagación en torno a las condiciones estéticas, éticas y políticas de los objetos y las tecnologías a partir de sus distintas materialidades. Reflexionar en torno a las condiciones materiales de los objetos (y por consecuencia la práctica y el pensamiento del diseño) implica pensar sobre escalas, durabilidades, pesos, volúmenes, atracciones, dispersiones, etc. Escapando del estudio plano de los usos sociales de objetos y tecnologías, pretendemos relacionarnos con sus ontologías complejas y mutantes, estableciendo metodologías de investigación que parten de los propios objetos, para así plantear una mirada objetual del diseño.Matter strikes back: an objectological attemptAbstractWe need to consider design from a posthumanist and materialist perspective. To achieve this, we reflect on the ethical, aesthetic, erotic and political conditions of objects and technologies, on the basis of their material conditions. To think about the materiality of objects (which implies thinking about design), we must take into account scales, durations, weights, volumes and attractions, among other factors. Instead of studying the social use of objects and technologies, we attempt to consider their mutant and complex ontologies, providing research methodologies drawn from the objects themselves. This can help us to approach design from a whole new perspective. Keywords: New materialisms, posthumanities, objects, design, research methods.
