David Weinberger on Massively Multiplayer Online Truth
Posted by Stowe Boyd
David W wonders if we need a replacement for the subjective/objective truth dimension:
[his post, Joho the Blog: Massively Multiplayer Online Truth, in it's entirety]
In some of my talks, I've been suggesting that the ability of people with different subjective viewpoints to talk with one another (via blogs, email, Skype, etc.) creates something new. It's not objectivity. It's not subjectivity. I've been calling it "multi-subjectivity."
Someone at my Oxford presentation pointed out that "multi" is entirely the wrong modifier because it implies many individuals, rather than focusing on what's occurring between them. But "intersubjectivity" carries baggage I don' t want. So, how about "Massively Multiplayer Online Truth."
Yes, I'm being cute, although I think it gets at something serious: The old, romantic view of truth was lonely. This one is social, and thus is joyful.
[Flame retardant underwear: MMOT is not a replacement for other types of truth. We need all of 'em.]
Ok, I propose "sojectivity" -- the understanding that arises from individuals with different subjective viewpoints exchanging their views -- using the "so" of "social".
