Weaving stories: Toward repertoires for designing things
While much work is underway within the context of posthuman design, this research is often
described from a dominantly human perspective. It rarely accounts for the creative capacities …

Diffraction-in-action: designerly explorations of agential realism through lived data
Recent design research has shown an interest in diffraction and agential realism, which
promise to offer generative alternatives when designing with data that resist treating data as …
