• Integrating the knowledge produced as a result of creative rationality within "design-logic" raises the question of the relations between designology and technology, and throws light onto the technical aspect of design processes that mostly mobilize creative rationality. It also shows that designology and technology fall into the more general category of a science of processes that can be modeled by science. Although the natural sciences mobilize analytical rationality, they also bring into play creative rationality, insofar as they are built on technical experiments. In fact, technology has moved from an understanding of objects to a science of processes. As a result, it now looks beyond classical science and its quest to define eternal laws and thereby eliminate time, in order to rediscover the living world, however technical, unstable, and integrated in time it may be. Hence, linking technology to creative rationality means stressing the dynamic of the rationality at work in technical innovation.
