Testing Test Results
A critical inquiry into the assumptions and outcomes of conventional psychometric instruments, this strand of Bernsteins’ work involved re‑interpreting standard test results through his own visual and conceptual frameworks. Rather than accepting singular scores or categories, he subjected familiar measures to iterative analysis and reconstrual, revealing hidden biases, semantic contingencies, and the limits of fixed categorisation in psychological assessment.
De-diagnostic-tools
Bernsteins’ de‑diagnostic tools were interactive visual instruments used directly with subjects to reveal patterns, ambiguities, and relational dynamics in thought and behaviour. Rather than assigning a single category or score, these tools produced multiple interpretive pathways, challenging conventional diagnostic frameworks and inviting participants to engage in self‑reflection and divergent meaning‑making.
Experiments
A series of conceptual investigations in which Bernsteins applied his visual and interactive methods to attempt to measure that which defies quantification — intuition, ambiguity, aesthetic resonance, and semantic flux. These experiments were designed not to yield fixed scores but to surface interpretive variance and cognitive elasticity, challenging the assumption that all aspects of mind and meaning can be captured by conventional instruments.
