Method is a way of surviving experience. The post-coping mechanism of someone on a journey to the center of the data. How does one look. Is it the landscape of hexadecimals, binaries, flying bits or deeper digging. A mole goes into depth in a different matter than the human does. 






As I kinda recalled in my 'essay'(as Rosa called my '''methods''' remark ;)), this word or experiment/experience has been quite the quilt on its own, I'm a bit confused but it also feels like the step after coping?  '''Method''' on its own feels like a way to practicalize whatever the ---- I'm struggling with.




''Yes'', I'm currently linking this sentence to my own surviving experience as I'm trying to create my own method in how to live this

...But about the text; the word first makes an entry in the title. And it introduces feminist '''methodology''' as a radical alternative.

My current method is just doing a quick scan through the text and react quickly and associative through the text. (Whilst making comments on the side)(to process text, this worked, to read, it didn't work
</syntaxhighlight>)/..


When searching for '''methods''' vs '''methodology'''; 

"'''Methodology''' vs. method. ''''Methodology'''<nowiki/>' is not just a fancier-sounding term for ''''methods'''<nowiki/>' – it refers to the school of thought by which you conduct research. '''Method''', on the other hand, is all about practicalities: surveys, experiments, observations and so on

Luckily the text goes back to the nature of '''method''', which contextualizes it to 'normal everyday life stuff' as a cleaning habit towards radicalizing (mobilizing) in order to protest injustice. As I'm writing about '''Methods''', I hear Victor talk about '''methods''' and I'm not sure if I'm doing this right but I'm doing it in my own '''method'''?                                                  

It mentions '''methodolatry'''; "Worship of a method that employs it uncritically regardless of ever- changing particulars and steadfastly ignoring past negative results."

Text I'm responding to / with:<blockquote>


<small>"A method is distinct from a recipe or formula, in exactly the sense that science is not embodied in a textbook and cooking is not a cookbook. It is a real-time, lived, and experiential form of ordering practice. In the words of Isabelle Stengers: Indeed, you do not follow a challenge, you do not obey it, it does not direct you. You have to invent the way to answer it, it proposes risks for your answers, but gives you no model. Thus it is consonant with my conception of science. It is consonant because our “social experience,” the moral and political options which situate us cannot become self-conscious just by a process of honest self-examination. It must be created through an active process of learning. Learning how we are situated, inventing the situations from which we can learn more about our situation does not give power to emancipation over cognition. It associates both emancipation and cognition. (1993, 46)"</small>                 

<small>"... It is a word at once stronger than para- digm, in the sense that it often crosses, both historically and spatially, most uses of the Kuhnian term. It may be part of several paradigms; it may persist after other attributes of a paradigm have fallen away. Methods considered in this fashion may have many of the features of surviving experience, depending on the values of the community using them: they can become imperialistic or monolithic (if one only has a hammer, the world becomes a nail, etc.); they can become a means of enforcing fundamentalism (reducing the world to that which can be perceived using the method); or they can become ways of encompassing multiplicity, complexity, and ambiguity. It is in this latter sense that feminism is important methodologically, I think, although we have sometimes used it in the monolithic or reductionist senses. Feminists have written some extremely powerful methodological pieces, not always recognized as such..."</small>               

<small>"Considered formally, then, the attributes of feminist method that are particularly important are: 1. experiential and collective basis; 2. processual nature; 3. honoring contradiction and partialness; 4. situated historicity with great attention to detail and specificity; and 5. the simultaneous application of all of these points."</small></blockquote>
