Abstract

This thesis offers a philosophical treatise on Invention in the 21st century, positing our current oppositional dialectic as problematic. Thus, I move to offer a way out of this dialectical negation in order to really invent or effect change. I provide an empirical study of in/Vention in the 21st century as a way of seeing this new mode of invention.
