Abstract
Design is the concept of fashion. This article is focusing on the notion that there is one ideal design of society. The search for ideal solutions of societal problems has been the habit of utopianism. With the purpose to clarify how a student understands prescription and the design of a perfect society, a discourse on Huxley’s ”Brave New World” is studied. The student as text producer is expected to communicate a particular intention and orientation, since certain viewpoints are chosen and expressed intentionally. Intention presupposes that a particular perspective must be present throughout text production. The presented approach is founded on the controlling [AaO] function of text production and implies a two-fold and complementary... (More)
Design is the concept of fashion. This article is focusing on the notion that there is one ideal design of society. The search for ideal solutions of societal problems has been the habit of utopianism. With the purpose to clarify how a student understands prescription and the design of a perfect society, a discourse on Huxley’s ”Brave New World” is studied. The student as text producer is expected to communicate a particular intention and orientation, since certain viewpoints are chosen and expressed intentionally. Intention presupposes that a particular perspective must be present throughout text production. The presented approach is founded on the controlling [AaO] function of text production and implies a two-fold and complementary descrip­tion of the underlying structures. These structures reflect noticeable invariance, which demonstrates that certain regions in the state spaces of the produced discourse can be manifested through the realisation of multiple trajectories. Their distinctive­ness provides the condition for a relational treatment of autonomously developing land­scapes of information synthesis. Concerning the constraining impact of Huxley’s utopian society on the emergent state attractors, it is shown that the termini of the attractors support information structures, which are coherent with an understanding of the emerging critical factors of disorder.
