Le choix d’un dispositif pédagogique comme prétexte pour aborder l’interdisciplinarité dans le projet architectural devrait en conséquence être bien réfléchi avec un cheminement méthodologique ciblé qui permettrait d’explorer la synergie entre architecture et ingénierie, architecture et design de l’espace, architecture et sculpture, architecture et urbanisme.

Après une brève discussion de la réalité de cette irréductibilité, nous essayons de surmonter certains de ces obstacles en distinguant espaces odorants et espaces olfactifs. Si un espace odorant peut-être objectivé et donc partagé, il n'en va pas de même d'un espace olfactif qui relève d'une expérience subjective. Cependant, l'effet invasif des molécules odorantes, plus spécifiquement celles qui provoquent des « mauvaises odeurs », est de nature à atténuer cette subjectivité et, du même coup, à faciliter le partage d'un espace olfactif. Notre argumentation prend appui sur des enquêtes ethnographiques menées au Brésil, en Chine et en Inde et sur une recherche menée en géographie sur la spatialisation des nuisances olfactives.","PeriodicalId":477165,"journal":{"name":"Journal of interdisciplinary methodologies and issues in science","volume":"44 20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134960128","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"To think of interdisciplinarity as intercurrence: Or, working as an interdisciplinary team to develop an ML tool to tackle online gender-based violence and hate speech","authors":"Cheshta Arora, Tarunima Prabhakar","doi":"10.46298/jimis.8915","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.46298/jimis.8915","url":null,"abstract":"The paper reflects on the working of an interdisciplinary team consisting of researchers and activists from the field of computer science and social sciences involved in developing a user-facing, browser plug-in to detect and moderate instances of online gender-based violence, hate speech and harassment in Hindi, Indian English, and Tamil. There have been multiple calls within the field of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) to include qualitative methods in one’s research design. These calls, while attuned to the importance of qualitative methods for HCI, ignore the intercurrent nature of different research methods, disciplines and practices. The paper borrows the concept of intercurrence from Orren & Skowronek (1996) and reorients it to explicate the practice of interdisciplinary research. It argues that intercurrence i.e. (in between, an occurrence within an occurrence) is a useful image to perceive interdisciplinarity wherein we argue that at any given point, an interdisciplinary team navigates multiple, yet simultaneously occurring temporal dimensions of differently disciplined bodies. An awareness of these multiple temporalities adds another dimension to thinking about conflicts and possibilities emerging from interdisciplinary practices and reorients interdisciplinary research towards unexpected outcomes.","PeriodicalId":477165,"journal":{"name":"Journal of interdisciplinary methodologies and issues in science","volume":"86 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136312834","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Le Groupe Interdisciplinaire sur l’Électricité Atmosphérique Naturelle (GIEAN): Report on a radical interdisciplinary experiment","authors":"Marc Conesa, Julien Mary","doi":"10.46298/jimis.12267","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.46298/jimis.12267","url":null,"abstract":"This article analyses interdisciplinarity as it was practiced or created conflicts within the realm of a collective project, the GIEAN (Groupe Interdisciplinaire sur l’Électricité Atmosphérique Naturelle), which brought together a panel of researchers from different disciplines to identify obstacles on the one hand, and heuristic and epistemological contributions on the other hand. The meetings and exchanges provided most of the material analyzed by the two authors, who were also participant-observers of the project. This article provides a threefold analysis: that of the genesis of the project, of the first meetings and the institutional formalization; that of the objects of study, their construction by the different disciplines, which revealed different research timeframes, but also the implicit — or sometimes explicit — unconsidered hierarchies of the disciplines, revealing different but not entirely opposed regimes of truth and scientific proof. The third analysis finally questions the multiple effects of interdisciplinarity on the project, the disciplines, and the researchers, but also the research structure that supported and accompanied the project — in this case the “Maison des Sciences de l’Homme (MSH)” — to lead to, in the form of an epilogue, the manner in which this article was received by the co-sponsor of the project. From start to finish, this paper presents a writing style centered on interdisciplinary encounters and practices, because if the results of funded research projects are those most often published, the approaches, obstacles, implicit prejudices, and epistemological contributions — in short, everything that forms the record and infra-narrative of a project — are rarely questioned and capitalized on. But is not the discipline of science also about knowing how to communicate by questioning what is communicated? Cet article vise à analyser l’interdisciplinarité telle qu’elle a été mise en pratique ou en tension sur le terrain d’un projet collectif, le GIEAN (Groupe Interdisciplinaire sur l’Électricité Atmosphérique Naturelle), ayant réuni un panel de chercheurs de disciplines différentes pour identifier d’une part les facteurs de blocages, et d’autre part les apports heuristiques et épistémologiques. Les moments de rencontres et d’échanges fournissent la plus grande partie du matériau analysé par les deux auteurs, également participants-observateurs du projet. L’article propose une triple lecture : celle de la genèse du projet, des premières rencontres et de sa formalisation institutionnelle, celle ensuite des objets d’étude, de leurs constructions par les différentes disciplines à travers lesquelles se manifestent des temporalités de recherche différentes, mais aussi des impensés implicites — ou parfois explicites — de hiérarchisation des disciplines, révélant des régimes de vérité et d’administration de la preuve scientifique différents sans être entièrement opposés.

This is even more dramatic for interdisciplinary studies, where several fields need to be explored. A tool to help researchers overcome this is Natural Language Processing (NLP): a machine-learning (ML) technique that allows scientists to automatically synthesize information from many articles. As a practical example, we have used NLP to conduct an interdisciplinary search for compounds that could be carriers for Diffuse Interstellar Bands (DIBs), a long-standing open question in astrophysics. We have trained a NLP model on a corpus of 1.5 million cross-domain articles in open access, and fine-tuned this model with a corpus of astrophysical publications about DIBs. Our analysis points us toward several molecules, studied primarily in biology, having transitions at the wavelengths of several DIBs and composed of abundant interstellar atoms. Several of these molecules contain chromophores, small molecular groups responsible for the molecule's colour, could be promising candidate carriers. Identifying viable carriers demonstrates the value of using NLP to tackle open scientific questions, in an interdisciplinary manner.","PeriodicalId":477165,"journal":{"name":"Journal of interdisciplinary methodologies and issues in science","volume":"65 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134977859","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
