  • PhD Musings

    Free

    There have been some great and important changes to me over the time of my candidature. I have learnt a great deal about the meaning of research, both as an activity within itself and in its effect on the person doing it. I now believe that it is not possible to do research without being changed by it. That does not only mean that the knowledge gained by doing the research will change the person acquiring it but also that the person will be changed in their outlook by being involved in doing the research. Thus research is a process that changes the individual doing it because it changes the researcher’s conceptions of themself and their world.

  • Software and Mind

    Some of the consequences of the mechanistic software myth:

    • The software elites have turned software into a weapon, a means to dominate and control society.
    • We depend more and more on the type of software that demands only trivial skills, so we are prevented from using our minds and expanding our knowledge.
    • The software elites are inducing dependence on inferior, standard systems, and are preventing independent, responsible programming.
    • New software products are installed every year in millions of places without being used, presumably because they are not the “solutions” they were said to be.
    • Software products and innovations are advertised by describing a few successes, which is logically equivalent to lying.
    • Universities are teaching and promoting invalid, pseudoscientific software notions.
    • Less than 1 percent of the programming activities in society represent useful work – work benefiting society in the way the work of doctors does.

  • Using Metaphor Analysis

    Using Metaphor Analysis to Research Researchers’ Conceptions

    Free

    This is a collection of some of my publications about metaphor analysis. All were previously published in internationally recognised, peer-reviewed journals during my PhD candidature at The Australian National University, and were reports on my on-going research about PhD students’ conceptions of research. I used metaphor analysis to analyse the students’ responses to a survey asking them to decribe their research.

    The order presented here is not necessarily the order in which the papers were published. I have re-arranged them to make a more coherent account of the story and progress of my work.
