This book provides a practical approach for applying posthumanist
insights to qualitative research inquiry. Adams and Thompson invite
readers to embrace their inner - and outer - cyborg as they
consider how today's professional practices and everyday ways of
being are increasingly intertwined with digital technologies.
Drawing on posthuman scholarship, the authors offer eight
heuristics for "interviewing objects" in an effort to reveal the
unique - and sometimes contradictory - contributions the digital is
making to work, learning and living. The heuristics are drawn from
Actor Network Theory, phenomenology, postphenomenology, critical
media studies and related sociomaterial approaches. This text
offers a theoretically informed yet practical approach for asking
critical questions of digital and non-digital things in
professional and personal spaces, and ultimately, for considering
the ethical and political implications of a technology mediated
world. A thought-provoking and innovative study, this book will be
of great interest to scholars and researchers of technology
studies, digital learning, and sociology.
