SUMMARY:Metaphysics and Logic Seminar Kathrin Koslicki (Universit茅 de Neuch芒tel)
DESCRIPTION:TITLE: Artifacts and the Limits of Human Creative Intentions \nABSTRACT: According to Amie Thomasson鈥檚 author-intention-based account of artifacts\, an artifact of kind K is essentially a product of a largely successful intention to create something of kind K (see\, e.g.\, Thomasson (2003)\, 鈥淩ealism and Human Kinds鈥漒, Philosophy and聽Phenomenological Research\, Vol. 67\, No. 3\, pp. 592-602). A maker has the relevant intention if and only if she has a substantive concept of the nature of Ks which largely matches that of prior makers of Ks (if any) and she intends to realize that concept by imposing K-relevant features. In cases of prototype production\, however\, where there are no prior exemplars of the artifactual kind in question\, Thomasson argues that what it is to be a K and what the K-relevant features are is determined\, as a matter of invention or stipulation\, purely by the content of the maker鈥檚 intentions and the goals she sets out to achieve through her creative act. As a result\, an agent who is constructing a prototype is related in a special way to the artifact and the artifactual kind she creates which protects her from certain kinds of error concerning the outcome of her creative act (see\, e.g.\, Thomasson\, Amie (2007)\, 鈥淎rtifacts and Human Concepts鈥漒, in Creations of the Mind: Theories of Artifacts and Their Representation\, edited by Eric Margolis and Stephen Laurence\, Oxford University Press\, New York\, NY\, pp. 60-61). In this paper\, I discuss the adequacy of Thomasson鈥檚 treatment of prototype production. I argue that the process of prototype production in fact allows for various sources of errors and failures on the part of agents attempting to carry out their creative intentions that are not recognized by Thomasson鈥檚 author-intention-based account. The possibility of this kind of divergence between the intentions of authors and the outcome of their creative efforts thus calls for an alternative conception of prototype-production and of the nature of artifacts more generally.
