Wholism>HolismHolism (from ὅλος > holos, a Greek word meaning all, entire, total) is the idea that all the properties of a

given system (biological, chemical, social, economic, mental, linguistic, technological etc.) cannot be

determined or explained by the sum of its component parts alone. Instead, the system as a whole determines

in an important way how the parts behave.

In short:Try to imagine that what you are bound to design can be the result of a meaningful

social, aesthetic and functional blend of (technological) components.

Such components can be both hard and soft,

social and cultural,analog and digital,

hands-on and conceptual,polemical and practical
