Epistemology of a technical object

N. A. Yastreb
Keywords: technical object, epistemological synthesis, direct construction, reverse construction, subject of technical cognition

Abstract

The author proposes an approach to interpretation of a technical object. She suggests treating it as a form of synthetic knowledge in which mathematical, logical, physical and aesthetic pieces of information integrate as a functioning system. In such a form, knowledge should meet conditions of paradigm consistency and praxeological admissibility. The paper considers epistemological aspects of direct and reverse construction and extraction of information about a subject and socio-cultural context from a technical object.
