Designing technological apparatuses for confrontation: Transdisciplinary perspectives on the collision of technological agencies and the design of mediations (with special attention to German media theory and the Latourian approach to STS)

摘要

This article seeks to contribute to a discussion which could propitiate, in my opinion, theudemergence of interesting connections between the Systemic Design field, German mediaudtheory, and the work of Bruno Latour on Science and Technology Studies (STS). Based on theudinvitation of this symposium to discuss at the frontiers of Systemic Design, I will outline thisudargument in the following four parts: profession versus discipline; things and obstacles; ANTudand confrontational agencies; and (un)designing technological apparatuses for confrontation.
