Vilém Flusser, Fabulador de Mundos: Ficcionalismo e Alteridade no Pensamento Flusseriano / Vilém Flusser, Fabulist of Worlds: Fictionalism and Otherness in Flusser's Thought
The epistemological program designed by Vilém Flusser assumes that scientific research needs to be fertilized by imagination. Therefore, it can be said that Flusserian philosophical fictions follow a project in which fiction constitutes a tool for the production of knowledge. This essay aims to map out the echoes of Flusser’s proposals in contemporary thinkers such as Peter Szendy and Arturo Escobar. By integrating Flusser’s reflections on design, imagination, and the perspectivistic relationship with otherness, I aim to second the Czech thinker in his search for a new way of doing theory, ultimately dedicated to the creation of new worlds and possible futures.
