pigglet:
quickly quickly (sorry but i've a deadline in 3-d land)--hope what follows makes sense.
1. objectivity is a set of claims about the world that are functions of a particular ideology--that the observer is unconditioned or neutral, the the world is an accumulation of objects, that the neutral observer records the arrangement of objects and by doing that reproduces a reality that is somehow not itself a function of an ideological framework that shapes the game of objectivity and the rules for generating statements etc.
2. i am not sure what you are asking me.
maybe lay out something of what you understand ontology to be and i can bounce off it as a way of explaining my positions at this level.
ontology is a technical term and it crosses with the stuff i am working on at the moment, so i suspect i would just start rattling on about what i am thinking about in 3-d without something more from you to work with.
it's a situational matter for me (the 3-d guy, not roachboy), this question: it is not about your post in itself (at another moment, i'm not sure that i would need to ask you for more information).
