Introduction

Technology and the theory of nothing can be something that we are embedded in and use as a kind of praxis of the possible through everyday experiences, in educational practice and in educational contexts. The importance of performance and praxis is key here, in a technology (theory)-nothing (praxis) perspective. It is about creating or not creating experiences and a new self-understanding when faced with routine praxis, situations requiring action and unexpected events. Technology consists of tools and artefacts that are efficient and ready for use and that can be mobilised and used with the least possible friction by school principals, teachers, pupils, politicians, researchers and institutions. The theory of nothing is about pre-epistemological and often pre-language elements that challenge our (self-)understanding and way of being. The chapter also presents an overview of the key concepts discussed in this book.
