Paper Abstract:
|
Following current developments on the scene of design and research practice for HCI, the understandings people may
have of roles prescribed by society have been augmented. Seeking a pragmatic way of developing understanding of what
it is to design technology, I argue the role of designers to be more than we perceive of ourselves. In particular, I propose
envisaging such roles in a broader context concerning how actions relate to a community, to language and to the
vocabularies that constitute the role. The call proposed in this paper is for a greater openness to wider communities and a
complete abandonment of the fallacy of objectivity. Most importantly, I try to establish hope for a reweaving of beliefs
and a move beyond method to free our roles as agents rather than seeing them directed from external imagined sources. |
