How do we solve problems, especially technical problems—but that means all problems, because technics is nothing more than the construction, maintenance, and modification of the scenes upon which we act. One of the hardest problems to solve is how to describe this process in a useful way that might help others get better at it, precisely because thinking is scenic and being on a scene cannot be reduced to its articulation of language. This makes it an interesting test of the thinking of technics as scenic design I’ve been working, so I’ll be writing a few of these posts dealing more or less directly with, until, hopefully, some way of addressing the question becomes implicit in all of my writing.
