Co-Creating the Real: A Transdisciplinary Dialogue

Glăveanu, Vlad Petre orcid logoORCID: 0000-0002-6029-6718 and de Miranda, Luis (2022) Co-Creating the Real: A Transdisciplinary Dialogue. Qualitative Inquiry, 28 (5). 476 -485. ISSN 1552-7565

Abstract
This article is the fruit of a written dialogue between a sociocultural psychologist and a philosopher invested in the study of the Creative Real, in a context that resonates with process philosophy and posthumanism. Each of the two authors come from a different tradition (or, rather, different traditions) to the topic of posthuman creativity and their approaches overlap considerably but include as well important points of difference, ranging from writing style to key concepts and areas of application. The authors found it important, thus, to use a dialogical format that favors listening and co-creation without diluting the argument into a false and comforting fusion. Dialogue is here a methodological tool in order not only to expose new ideas but also to generate cross-fertilization. The value of such transdisciplinary conversations rests in the fact that they are – or should be – ongoing: the aim is not to conclude but to generate reactions, ideas, new dialogues. For this purpose, the article starts with opening statements and the replies to them, then move on to describing concrete cases that the authors experienced in their practice, followed by comments on each other’s cases and final reflections about the effects of this “crealectic” exchange.
