Hi Jurgen,
Good point when you asked:
"My question here is, does anybody have an idea where design as a discourse
isn't defendable?"
My answer would be: Design as a discourse is not defendable when you want to
isolate design from all other discursive forms (in order to define design
not as discourse).
Best,
Eduardo

Subject: design as discourse
Hi All,
I recently finished a very important research to define contemporary design
approaches but I looked
into more historical documents as well and then I realized also state that
design is discourse as
Krippendorf or Sarkinnen didas well.
And when I studied Foucault design is discourse is also a sustainable
statement as well from the
Foucault perspective reading some parts of the Archeology. Because the
textual matter changes, but
a discourse is observable also when the discourse community changes.
My question here is, does anybody have an idea where design as a discourse
isn't defendable?
