This chapter discusses secularism as a political project with its own utopian elements. Secularism refers to the growing importance of scientific knowledge that is not constrained by religious authority. Religion is sometimes taken to be an obstacle for scientific progress and secularism demands its removal for the benefit of societal development that is guided by scientific discovery and technological innovation. Secularization was seen by sociologists as an intrinsic and inescapable part of the modernization of Western society, with the assumption that this was something all societies had to go through. An alternative to post-Weberian arguments in sociology about religion and secularity is offered by theories that emphasize individual, rational choice in religious markets.

Immersing People in Scientific Knowledge and Technological Innovation Through Disney's Use of Installation Art

This chapter argues that installation art is a powerful, but underused, method for presenting scientific knowledge and visions of technological innovation. It reviews Disney's extremely successful exhibits at the 64-65 fair as iconic examples of art installations designed to provide strong narrative experiences of technological innovation. Disney used different aspects of installation art to present powerful immersive installations as presentation of technological and scientific knowledge through multiple media. The goal is to identify general methods for conveying such knowledge to general, lay audiences in ways that might not only encourage greater understanding, but also inspire future generations toward scientific and technological discovery.

The 1960S

This chapter compares several Disney exhibits—particularly those narrativizing technological innovation—to immersive installation artwork in order to explore the importance of narrative and textual reference in creating powerful immersive installations as presentation of technological and scientific knowledge through multiple media. The narrative craft of exhibits such as the Ford Magic Skyway and GE Carousel of Progress, which Disney created for the 1964-65 World's Fair in New York, are compared to works within the genre of installation art, which has developed greatly since the 1960s. Similar to Disney, many artists have deployed immersive installation art exhibits to envelop audiences in a detailed aesthetic and conceptual narrative. Some educational institutions have also used experiential education installations, especially for teaching scientific concepts.

THE INNOVATION AS AN ELEMENT OF THE GROWTH OF SCIENTIFIC KNOWLEDGE. THE CASE STUDY

Space History

The theoretical novelty (innovation) is usually a prelude to a technological innovation. The theoretical novelty starts with the assuming of research hypothesis. An episode of recent space history serves to reconstruct: a) the diagnosing of anomaly and the arising of hypothesis, b) research functions of hypothesis.

3D Printing Technology

3D printing technology has been perceived as a disruptive technological innovation in many areas as it can revolutionize existing systems. It has many potential advantages in various areas such as medicine, aerospace and customized goods in terms of integrity, cost and speed. This study aims to visualize the evolution of 3D printing technology related patents by patent mapping, in the process, diffusion of 3D printing technologies to different business fields can be traced and evaluated. Patents represent the scientific knowledge that has been already commercialized or is ready to be marketed. The historical evolution and current framework have been demonstrated by using social network analysis on CPC codes of the related patents. Results of the study suggest that most technologies connected with 3D printing depend on B29C (shaping or joining of plastics; shaping of substances in a plastic state, in general; after-treatment of the shaped products, e.g., repairing.).
