| Abstract | This chapter moves the notion of failure in the context of real-world experimentation so that accidental and strategic ignorance can be understood as elements and conditions of knowledge production in general. This renders mistakes and failures as eminent in processes of knowledge generation and learning. Thus understood, the notion of experimenting with the unpredictable can be connected to concepts of risk and uncertainty in order to treat experimental cultures as proceduralization of mindful mistakes so that learning from failure can be better understood as a legitimate strategy. To illustrate this point, the COVID-19 pandemic will be conceptualized as a large-scale or global experiment in learning from failure. |
