The Organic Perspective: Cultivating Meaning in a Transdisciplinary Synthesis

Social sciences are fundamentally intertwined with every single scientific perspective and act of cultivation, whether in daily tasks, self-expressions, arts, or sports. It occurs to be difficult for the social sciences to integrate their own connective nature into research procedures. Frequently, we can retrace central intentions to overcome this challenge in the redefined notions of cultural Psychology. Nevertheless, this rethinking can still be seen as very young and anchors the potential of being dynamically cultivated further. Therefore, the organic perspective is introduced as a new approach to elaborate and position us toward how we can observe and reflect phenomenology. It is a positioning that integrates the central notion that the experience of time and space in daily life can differ between individuals. Furthermore, it can even be experienced as a polysemic experience, where the exact moment is perceived in a fragmental diverged experiencing of time. The method contrasts the fundamental mechanics of traditional positions towards the space and time dimensions by beginning with movement as the crucial starting point of making experiences. The organic perspective allows our methodological construction to learn from every process we can experience daily. At the same time, it underlines the fundamental notion of how we perceive and what we perceive. It is a process bonded to the act of living and profits essentially from being connected thoughtfully with its unique context. This process also includes the researcher’s individual approach in the context of phenomenological discovery.
