- Title
Cyborg Phenomenology: Performative Inquiry in a Technoscientific World.
- Authors
MacDonald, Shauna M.
- Abstract
Technoscience and posthumanism point to paradigmatic shifts that require innovative methodological thinking in terms of the questions they pose. In this essay and digital diffraction, drawing from my own performance work, I detail a methodology for examining lived experience within a technoscientific lifeworld. Turning to phenomenology as a philosophical approach, I argue for a posthuman methodology called "cyborg phenomenology." I then outline a series of phases through which scholars of performance and artistic inquiry might move in order to gain an understanding of posthuman, technoscientific experience, and attempt to exemplify the methodology through phenomenological writing and the use of digital performance as one set of diffracted "findings".
