Information Systems research shaped by aesthetic viewpoints

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

This paper explores how aesthetic perspectives influence the direction and recognition of research within Information Systems. It identifies four key aesthetic viewpoints—imitation, sensory experience, world-making, and political doing—that shape how scholars perceive and value sociotechnical phenomena. By making these implicit assumptions explicit, the research aims to provide a framework for understanding how aesthetics impact theorizing, methodology, and the overall contribution of IS scholarship, particularly in areas like algorithmic management and digitally mediated intimacy. AI

IMPACT Provides a framework for analyzing how aesthetic biases can shape research questions and findings in AI-adjacent fields like Information Systems.

    Aesthetic Perspectives in Information Systems Research: A Hermeneutic Analysis

    arXiv:2606.09839v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: How might implicit aesthetic perspectives shape what Information Systems (IS) scholarship recognises as worthy of study (or not)? In this hermeneutic literature analysis, we surface foundational aesthetic assumptions underpinning …
