Resumo

'Truth or Trick' takes the trolley problem thought experiment as a found object and compares it to the psychotherapist's probe in responding to the collection's call to think with stylized ethical dilemmas rather than against them. The article asks what simplification and reduction are good for, without assuming an answer ahead of time. Despite the vastly different aims of philosophy on the one hand and an ethnographically observed clinical practice on the other, a comparison of two disciplines' use of devices points to how the removal of noise can facilitate clarification and observation. Simplification appears to be a complementary response to the intractability of the problems such objects aim to address—a relation of inverse correlation.
