Experimental Reason, Constructivism, Know-How

According to one version of 'Constructivism', one advocated by Cassirer, and confirmed by Gestalt theory, to 'know' X = to 'build' X.  In contrast, Spinoza distinguishes between the idea of how to draw a circle from the idea of a property of a circle, asserting that the former is more fundamental.  Now, the Schematism, which is the basis of Kant's Constructivism, provides a "rule of synthesis" (B 180), thus evincing Kant's allegiance to Spinoza's assertion.  Likewise, Experimental Reason formulates a procedure for the production of data.  In other words, the 'knowledge' of which such Constructivism is a theory is fundamentally that of Know-How.  The priority of this version is expressed, for example, in the thesis that Gestalt structuring is governed by genetic programming.
