Deshakala

Conceptfirst used August 2014

Deshakala is the Indian notion of the place and time, desha and kala, in which something arises. I've said that design is the science of Deshakala. An idea is always an answer to its own Deshakala.

How the word moved

I used it in August 2014 in The Design of Philosophy. Descartes' certainty, for instance, was a good design for his Deshakala and doesn't have to be a good design for ours.

In my words

"In my opinion, design is the science of Deshakala"

from The Design of Philosophy, 2 Aug 2014
