Merchant Marine Deck Officer Agency Through Performative Acts
Merchant Marine Deck Officer Agency through Performative Acts An Oppositional View to Deskilling Theory By: Donald Frederick Clark Dissertation submitted to the faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy In Science & Technology Studies Approved: Sonja D. Schmid Co-Chair Shannon A. Brown Co-Chair Barbara L. Allen Janet E. Abbate August 04, 2016 Falls Church, Virginia Keywords: Actor-network Theory, Tacit Knowledge, Commedia Del’Arte, Deskilling, ECDIS, Experiential Technical Knowledge, Marine Navigation, Merchant M Deck Officer, Mimeomorphic, Performative Act, Performativity, Polimorphic, Situated Action, Skill Merchant Marine Deck Officer Agency Through Performative Acts – An Oppositional View to Deskilling Theory Donald Frederick Clark ABSTRACT I bring together ethnographic interviews with deck officers, studies in actor-network theory, explicit and tacit knowledge theory, and performativity theory in this work. I prove that bridge technologies produce what are called mimeomorphic (repeatable with some variation) actions that contain no deck officer collective tacit knowledge. I argue that deck officer bridge watch situated actions are mostly polimorphic (actions can vary depending on social context), and these actions are in fact performatives (in an Austin sense) derived from a more oral than literate performance production process. These performatives constantly build the mariner’s identity within the maritime deck officer community and their successful performatives give deck officers agency in the form of an oppositional view to deskilling. These same performative acts are the value of the mariner’s experiential technological knowledge within the ship’s bridge technology framework Dedication My children – for making me cry… and laugh! Mom – taught me social tolerance. -

I have often wondered why ships have souls but cars, trucks, and skyscrapers don’t.
