  artefacts the shape of the practice and its
  product
• Configuring (figuring together) designers and
  technologies

Conclusions

• The object of work (both when is technologically
  mediated and when is absent) shapes work
  practices in specific ways
• interaction, participation, interpretation
  (trialoging), imagination
• In particular work practices are shaped by the
  absence of the object or by the invisibility of
  its functioning
• (as in other and similar professions Ochs at
  al. 1996 Newman 1998 Murphy, 2004 Alac
  Hutchins 2004)

Conclusions

• Practices are organized through various
  sociomaterial arrangements of designers and
  technologies (talk, body, computer, whiteboard,
  space)
• Such configurations are both the way in which
  design develops and also its product what
  designers embody in the programs they build as
  part of their job
