4. AA pre-reflective moment
focused on something to
take shape or to be
revealed as perception
Creativity is
grounded in an
autopoietic
action of re-
construction
and re-creation

5. Fact finding, Perception and Embodiment
Knowledge is knowing but understanding is using the knowledge.
Different messages are tested against value systems and meaningful questions.
Analytical thinking, synthesis and idea generation allow for openness to experience.
Consilience is a key word in design: we create a
new world (design) by putting the smaller
components together which we understand.
We hereby create our own reality, by using
creative thinking. We search for the
relationships between independent ideas.
