项目摘要

Design is a constantly evolving discipline, tied to the economy and playing a strategic role in the innovation ecosystem. This research will combine academic expertise in contemporary product design and history to explore the social and cultural drivers of innovation in a historical context to provide new insight into the factors promoting innovation, its application and impact. It will explore the nature of creativity in the industrial context, and the opportunities and restrictions provided by technology and business to the creative process. Additionally, it will provide a pathway to greater understanding of business development through the application of research knowledge and illuminate the prescriptive use of technology to understand how cultural and social groups at home and overseas, adopted products and processes to meet their own requirement - or rejected them in favour of established methods. This process of 'taming' technology (domestication) by peoples in a wide variety of imperial contexts has been underexplored by designers, historians, anthropologists and cultural theorists and this research will both expose this area and appeal to a broad range of disciplines. By constructing a series of historical case studies, based on contemporary technological innovations such as steam power, the work will build a route to the greater understanding of and exposure to the nature of British imperialism and responses to it via a manageable research context and structure. It will also uncover insights into the nature of the Industrial Revolution and the industrial economy, with opportunities to apply the thinking behind this research to more modern industrial change in the developing economies of the world. By mapping these processes in an historical context, this research will shed light on contemporary design issues in a globalised economic context. The research questions addressed by this research are:1. What components constituted the innovation ecosystem in the mature industrial economy of nineteenth century Britain?2. What was the impact of design on this economy and its wider imperial context?3. How, and in what ways, were these technologies and innovations 'domesticated' by the colonised and what can this tell us about the nature of imperialism in this period?Taken together, this research will provide a model for a new interdisciplinary approach, bringing together historical and product design methodologies and theoretical frameworks to build a fresh perspective on the nature of innovation and the impact of design. For design practitioners, this research will also provide historical precedents for the contemporary reception of new technologies across a globalised marketplace, as well as provide space for a critical interrogation of the purpose and consequences of these processes.
设计是一门不断发展的学科,与经济息息相关,在创新生态系统中发挥着战略作用。这项研究将结合当代产品设计和历史的学术专业知识,在历史背景下探索创新的社会和文化驱动因素,为推动创新的因素、应用和影响提供新的见解。它将探索工业背景下创意的本质,以及技术和商业为创意过程提供的机会和限制。此外,它还将提供一条途径,通过应用研究知识更好地了解商业发展,并说明如何规范地使用技术,以了解国内外的文化和社会团体如何采用产品和流程来满足自己的需求--或者为了支持既定的方法而拒绝它们。设计师、历史学家、人类学家和文化理论家都没有充分探讨过人们在各种各样的帝国背景下“驯服”技术(驯化)的过程,这项研究既揭示了这一领域,也吸引了广泛的学科。通过构建一系列基于当代技术创新(如蒸汽动力)的历史案例研究,这项工作将建立一条途径,通过可管理的研究背景和结构,更好地理解和暴露不列颠帝国主义的本质,并对其做出回应。它还将揭示工业革命和工业经济的本质,并有机会将这项研究背后的思想应用于世界发展中经济体更现代的工业变革。通过在历史背景下描绘这些过程,这项研究将揭示全球化经济背景下的当代设计问题。这项研究涉及的研究问题是:1.在19世纪英国成熟的工业经济中,哪些组成部分构成了创新生态系统?2.设计对这种经济及其更广泛的帝国背景有什么影响?3.这些技术和创新是如何以及以什么方式被殖民者“驯化”的,这能告诉我们关于这一时期帝国主义性质的什么?总而言之,这项研究将为一种新的跨学科方法提供一个模型,将历史和产品设计方法和理论框架结合在一起,以建立一个关于创新的本质和设计的影响的新视角。对于设计从业者来说,这项研究还将为当代在全球化市场上接受新技术提供历史先例,并为对这些过程的目的和后果进行批判性询问提供空间。
