Course Description
Overview
Explore a 22-minute conference talk that delves into the socio-technical relationships between craftspeople, their tools, and workspaces, drawing parallels to the Internet of Things (IoT). Analyze themes of embodiment, provenance, insecurity, flow, and companionability through semi-structured interviews and cognitive mapping with 14 craftspeople. Gain insights into policy interventions for understanding connectivity and inter-device operability as material, flexible, and respectful of human agency. Examine the poetics of socio-technical space through the lens of actor-network theory and the concept of companionability, emphasizing the role of human and non-human actants in everyday life.
