Antidisciplinary work occupies spaces outside all existing disciplines

Evidence

Joichi Ito, former director of MIT Media Lab, writes: “Interdisciplinary work is when people from different disciplines work together. But antidisciplinary is something very different; it’s about working in spaces that simply do not fit into any existing academic discipline—a specific field of study with its own particular words, frameworks, and methods.” — Anna Kornbluh, Immediacy, or The Style of Too Late…, 621

Categorization

  • XREF: Ito’s operational definition of ‘space that simply does not fit’ is the methodological face of immediacy — the abolition of disciplinary mediation.
