Phenomenology• Branch of Continental philosophy initiated by Edmund
Husserl
• The study of ‘phenomena’ – whatever appears in the manner in which it appears.
• Paying attention to the nature of consciousness as actually experiences
• David Seamon – uses phenomenology to describe the underlying, essential qualities of human experience and the world in which that experience happens

Phenomenology• In tension with Descartes
• Merleau-Ponty – philosopher of the body
• The body is the basis and conduit of knowledge
• Replaces the ‘objective’ Cartesian body with the body-as-subject - subject and object as mutual interrelation

Postphenomenology• Rejects ‘view from nowhere’ (per good ole
phenomenology)
• Moves away from essentialism and towards phenomenological structures such as ‘multistability’ (See: Don Ihde)
• Non-subjectivistic (decentres human)
• Interrelational ontology (co-shaping)
