by Georg Trogemann (Editor)

Today, we not only design and produce artifacts, but also subjective experiences, life models and social change. This active shaping of our life circumstances is usually seen as a plannable and methodical activity. However, practice shows that a multitude of uncertainties, non-conceptualizable actions and forms of not-knowing are involved in these processes. The contributions in this volume are dedicated to dealing with the unknown in design, art, and technology.
