Schalten und walten. Towards Operative Ontologies
IKKM Biennial Conference 2019
The conference will conclude the IKKM six-year research program on ‘Operative Ontologies’. A term seeming contradictory at first, it assumes that everything that exists is not simply present or given but has been called into being through media and their operations in the most general sense: The ruling (das Walten) of nature as well as the ruling of the social reside under the command of technology, which as increasingly digitized technology is based on switching operations (das Schalten) — e.g. the achievements of bioengineering or the computational models of planet Earth. When embodied operations establish ontological orders and the difference between the ontic and the ontological thus re-enters the ontic, this demands a radical remodeling of ontology. The IKKM Biennial Conference 2019 therefore investigates the given with regard to the procedures through which it has been made possible, produced, set up, brought into the world and called into being — “switched on” — in the first place.

From Observation to Text, from Text to Culture
Two Paths of Semiotics?
Dans ce colloque, nous entendons nous concentrer sur les outils d’analyse de la sémiotique et des disciplines sociales suivant deux directions complémentaires : (I) de l’observation au texte et (II) du texte à la culture. Dans le volet (I), nous entendons nous concentrer sur ce qui se passe durant la captation et l’inscription du sens en fonction de l’observation et l’interaction vécue, mais aussi à travers les notations, transcriptions et pré-analyses produites au cours de cette observation. Il s’agira de nous demander en quoi l’observation et la participation du chercheur peuvent contribuer à façonner les objets culturels. Dans le volet (II), la question que nous voudrions poser concerne le parcours qui conduit du texte à la culture. Ici, il ne s’agira pas forcément d’enregistrer sa propre expérience in vivo et de l’analyser en cours de construction du texte, mais de s’arrêter sur les moyens possédés par le chercheur pour prendre pour objet d’analyse un élément aussi large que la culture.
