Abstract

This chapter delineates novelty as the articulation of an object identity. It attempts to delineate how a sense of unity evolves in a state prior to an object’s full technical realization, when elements are loose and technically unconnected. In a certain sense, the chapter addresses the ideas of an object. However, it is not about thinking, and my argumentation takes a different perspective than that of regarding novelty as an invention based on ideas.
