Listening to the sociomaterial: When thinking through making extends beyond the individual
https://orcid.org/0000-0002-7502-2488
Current discussions in practice-led design research concentrate on the thoughtful dimension of working with materials and the problem of analyzing acts of making at the scale of individual practice. Informed by the theoretical tenets of sociomateriality, this paper encloses a practice-led study addressing both issues. We followed the making of a collaboration-based, material-intensive workshop designed by the first author, where he also participated as a maker. This approach afforded us an insider's perspective to delineate how thinking through making transcends the individual and distributes across the entangled becoming of the social and the material. Our findings shed light on four features of sociomaterial assemblages that warrant critical attention in practice-led design research: temporality, contingency, epistemic capability, and analytical agency.
Highlights We contribute a methodological approach to conducting practice-led design research. Our approach situates design practice in collaborative making. Collaborative making demands a process of sociomaterial negotiation. This process decenters the designer-researcher from knowledge production. Adopting a sociomaterial lens can substantially benefit current efforts to analyze own design activity.
