Slide Content

Art and science deals with experienceing reality by using certain assumptions and techniques.

Categorization of science; Analytical distinctions ; nature of the subject matter of the study Division of labour in society; expression of social reality This dual nature of categorization process makes these categories unseperable.

The borders between these categories of science are not too obvious. They are juxtaposing as branches of a tree which grow from the same root of which purpose is seeking for an understanding of reality.

However, traditionally people tend to compare different categories of sciences due to their experimentability level For example, Physics > Biology > Sociology; in terms of the level of experimentation

According to White, comparing different branches of science due to their experimentation level is unwarranted. In stead, as they are all trying to interpret the reality, all the phases of this interpretation are equally scientific. Thus, science cannot be divided into qualitatively different parts.

By using science, human tries to understand REALITY, in other words, an infinite set of EVENTS.

These relationships between events can occur in two different co-ordinates.

These co-ordinates are; Space co-ordinates; x-y-z Time co –ordinate; t The structure of reality; thus, is constructed with these co-ordinates

These are the three ways of sciencing, there is no other way. Temporal Spatial Temporal-Spatial With these three ways, human tries to comprehend different realms of reality which are; Inanimate (PHYSICAL) Living organisms (BIOLOGICAL) Usage of symbols by humankind (CULTURAL)
