This article is part of the discussion about what to do with regard to the Anthropocene and how to project design in a direction oriented towards caring for the Planet. Overcoming the environmental crisis implied by the notion of Anthropocene involves questioning or, rather, redesigning the culture of design in terms of its ontological, methodological, and ethical suppositions. Specifically, this article proposes analytic displacements in order to problematize the hegemonic paradigm of user-centered design, opening the discussion up to other ways of being and world-making. To that end, we focus on the question of how to deploy planet-oriented design. We develop four points: bringing design down to Earth, situating design, decelerating design and intersectionalities in design. This article is meant to contribute to expanding this research agenda of design for transitions, focusing on the need for design that fosters more careful and ethical cohabitation on a damaged Planet. Keywords Planet-oriented design Anthropocene User-centered design More-than-human Problematizing Human-Centred Design: Notes on Planet-Oriented Design

"Caminando. Prácticas, corporalidades y afectos en la ciudad" busca contribuir a abrir campos de exploración teórico-metodológica en torno a los significados, territorios e imaginarios que se conjugan en la práctica de caminar. No se trata un libro directamente orientado a la planificación urbana, ni tampoco pretende levantar respuestas o soluciones a los problemas asociados a la peatonalidad. Sin desconocer la importancia de la regulación territorial para mejorar las condiciones de caminabilidad en nuestras ciudades latinoamericanas, su propósito es ahondar en las prácticas y espacialidades que se expresan en esta forma de movilidad, reuniendo para ello diferentes perspectivas (arte, antropología, estética, fotografía, urbanismo, sociología, geografía, diseño) que confluyen al concebir el caminar como campo de estudio.

Este volumen pretende hacer visible, a una audiencia especializada como no-especialista, diferentes comprensiones y aplicaciones del término Smart City, proponiendo problemáticas, casos y conceptualizaciones que van más allá de una visión tecnologizada del urbanismos smart. Permite pluralizar y a la vez tomar distancia crítica de esta ola de Ciudades Inteligentes, mostrando las múltiples formas de inteligencia que adopta la vida urbana, que pueden ir desde la recomposición de espacios públicos hasta sofisticadas formas de gestión en transporte. Digámoslo de otra manera: aquellos productos diseñados y definidos por “sistemas expertos”, no tiene el monopolio de lo smart, y el prototipo espontáneo de una cancha de fútbol o de una barrera anti-ruido elaborada por un colectivo ciudadano puede ser tan inteligente o más que que un brazalete wearable. Lo importante es estar atento a esas pulsiones y gestos, sensores y desplazamientos urbanos
En suma, la vocación de este libro es abrir el debate sobre las Smart Cities, explorando a partir de diferentes perspectivas y disciplinas (Antropología, Diseño, Ingeniería, Sociología, Arquitectura, Políticas Públicas...), la pregunta sobre qué implica una práctica urbana inteligente y sus efectos en la estructuración de la ciudad y sus discursos.

Reseña del libro After Lockdown: A Metamorphosis, de Bruno Latour

The last years have witnessed the development of a questioning of the top-down character in urban planning and the inefficiencies sometimes evidenced by bureaucratic and centralized programs when dealing with the problems of the city. Consequently, there are today different terms (“open-source urban planning”, “do-it-yourself urban planning”, “smart citizens”, “participative urban planning”, “tactic urban planning”, etc.) to refer to more distributed, located and temporary forms of urban design. This scenario has led several authors to rethink the social, material and political conditions for a citizens’ urban planning that can bring into existence the right to a city and to the self-production of urban infrastructures. Starting from an urban hacking project with homeless persons in La Chimba neighborhood, this article explores the possibilities of this type of interventions, particularly in respect to the redistribution of abilities between the experts and the lay person, between d...

In a milieu marked by increasing quantification of social life, many digital devices have emerged under the promise of a revolutionary change in areas such as urban planning and governance of Smart City projects. Starting from a pragmatist approach based on Boltanski and Thévenot’s “orders of worth” framework, we argue that the promoters of digital devices must justify their worth by developing “technologies of justification” that go beyond data. In this article, we use a multi-case study of three digital devices—RUBI, Kappo, and Bikelite—for urban cycling created in Santiago de Chile to analyze the material, narrative, and economic technologies of justification mobilized to establish the worth of the data that these devices extract, analyze, and visualize for urban governance. This comparative analysis helps us problematize the homogeneous, neutral, and efficiency-focused valuations that are typically ascribed to these devices by laying out the wide range of operations that are use...

In June 2012, the French car company Renault turned Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines, a town on the outskirts of Paris, into a test and demonstration laboratory. The company introduced a fleet of 50 electric cars as part of a car-sharing system without fixed stations called Twizy Way. This scheme was a component of the manufacturer’s development strategy for the electric car market. This paper analyses this initiative in order to account for an experimental mode of industrial innovation. Characterised by the use of sociotechnical instruments in order to explore social and technical uncertainties and produce public demonstrations, this experimental mode is based on various kinds of experiments. Building on Science and Technology Studies and Actor Network Theory, this paper discusses two of them, which are in the same time two propositions for the organisation of codesign: a planned field test designed by Renault; and the collection of inquiries that resulted from the extension of the number of experimenters. These descriptions point to the analytical interest of the study of experimental trajectories in public and private interventions related to industrial projects, particularly in situations where the scope of the involved actors is not pre-given.

En este trabajo nos proponemos rastrear y analizar controversias ciudadanas que agitan la ciudad de Calama desde un evento particular: la conversacion situada con el calameno Pablo Guzman por las calles del Centro Historico de Calama. Esta conversacion particular sera analizada desde la nocion cosa-cosmos (Tresch, 2005; Latour, 2007), la que precipita dos presupuestos teorico-metodologicos. Primero, considerar simetricamente actantes humanos y no-humanos, renunciando a presupuestos ontologicos cerrados y esencialistas; segundo, que este asunto particular puede conectar, representar y reconstruir una totalidad -cosmograma. La nocion de cosa-cosmos nos permite ir mas alla un enfoque “externalista” y “desencarnado” de las controversias (Cefai & Terzi, 2012), para aprehenderlas desde la performance de los actantes. De ahi que -orquestando texto, mapas, fotos y otros- daremos cuenta de una experiencia situada que, discursiva, escenica y performaticamente, estresa la hegemonia de la repre...

This article is based on the process of prototyping an environmental enrichment device for gibbons at the National Zoo of Chile (ZNdC). We analyse the capacity of prototyping to make the ontological qualities of the entities involved perceptible while precipitating forms of care and connection. We will show that the very process of prototyping favours the mise en scène of an interspecies environment, sheltering the delicate unfolding of an 'us' that is based on mutual care and attention. We argue that this unfolding transforms prototyping into a cosmopolitical place for exercising modes of correspondence between humans, non-humans and environments. In an effort to understand prototyping as a scenario in which to perform our species interdependence, we propose a conversation between different concepts around the ideas of cosmopolitics and correspondence in order to encourage reflections on design practices that are sensitive to those entangled ʽbeyond the human.ʼ

Este articulo propone una reflexion empirica en torno a procesos de diseno del habitat de animales del Zoologico Nacional en Santiago de Chile. Siguiendo el trabajo de un grupo de estudiantes de Diseno, describimos como el prototipado contribuye a singularizar animales del zoologico. Se muestra que la operacion de prototipado puede ser comprendida como dispositivo cosmopolitico, al instaurar procesos abiertos de dialogo y exploracion sobre las especificidades de los animales. A partir del caso del enriquecimiento ambiental para chimpances, se observara como el prototipado despliega una vocacion ontologica, prototipando a los mismos animales como entidades singulares. El caracter provisional, maleable y fragil del prototipo, convierte a este dispositivo de prueba en un lugar de indagacion y experimentacion, re-problematizando las ontologias comprometidas en la interaccion disenadores animales-profesionales del zoologico. El caracter cosmopolitico del prototipo proviene de las formas ...

While the real estate market engenders its own imaginaries, it is also influenced by the ones coming from the outside; for example, images of ideal potential consumers that prompt changes in supply. This research delves into real estate executives’ imaginaries to illustrate how they transform housing supply and, what is more, how they manage to adapt the offer when these imaginaries do not match the expected target.

This issue of Disena explores beyond the restrictive boundaries that were originally imposed on design, installing questions about a design that reflects empirically on the conditions for the sustainability and habitability of the world (Sloterdijk, 2014). Instead of understanding design and politics as opposing and ontologically stable domains, we believe it’s relevant to revitalize design’s political drive, that is, its capacity to co-produce the social and unfold new political issues.

Martin Tironi describes the continuous maintenance of another Parisian transportation network, the public bicycle scheme called Velib’. Tironi highlights the innovative aspect of this network’s maintenance. The agents engage in socio-technical inquiries on various aspects of the network (users, bikes, locations, time schedules, etc.). They actively transform them and, in so doing, the Velib’ maintenance agents contribute to urban innovation, showing the unfinished nature of the city. Tironi’s study highlights parts of the often invisible and largely ignored work through which mobility is sustained, taking seriously the value of the frictions and failures that populate urban life. Moreover, Tironi’s study emphasizes the close connection between maintenance routine, local inquiry and experimentation, working out in fine detail the heuristic interest of Dewey’s pragmatist notion of inquiry.

Based on the Smart Cities imaginary, the bottom-up project Stgo2020 created a self-tracking device known as Rastreador Urbano de Bicicletas (or Urban Bicycle Tracker) to record the daily trips of cyclists in Santiago de Chile and use the data gathered to help government officials make better and data-driven decisions on cycling infrastructure planning. In this article, we examine the iterative design of this technology as well as its introduction into the everyday practices of cyclists. We argue that efforts to quantify the ordinary experience of cycling were overwhelmed and interrupted by an ecology of breakdowns, everyday contingencies, forgetfulness, and re-interpretations in the assemblage of devices, data, humans, and bicycles. These breakdowns generated incoherent or absurd bits of information that we call them as “idiotic data” based on recent conceptualizations of the character of the idiot. Significant displacements were provoked by these idiotic data, forcing the engineer ...

Dentro de la tenencia mundial por generar ciudades más inteligentes y sustentables, la creación de infraestructura urbana en favor del uso de la bicicleta se ha vuelto una meta de varias capitales como es el caso de Santiago de Chile. Ante la pregunta por cómo definir en dónde instalar esa infraestructura vial, el proyecto bottom-up Stgo2020 diseña un diminuto dispositivo de self-tracking llamado RUBI. Este permite registrar los recorridos cotidianos de ciclistas que voluntariamente deciden colaborar con el estudio. Con esta data ciudadana, los impulsores de este proyecto han creado mapas y visualizaciones del uso de la bicicleta en la ciudad, buscando ayudar a crear mejores políticas públicas en esta materia. Desde una enfoque teórico de los Estudios de ciencia, tecnologТa y sociedad, este artículo busca abrir la caja “negra de este dispositivo”, investigando de manera etnográfica sus diferentes prototipos, programas, experimentaciones y decisiones inscritas en él, así como las var...

"Queremos ser nosotros los que diseñemos y controlemos nuestros proyectos de vida" Elicura Chihuailaf. La descolonización del diseño "Resonancias Tectónicas desde el Sur: del User Centered Design al Diseño orientado al Planeta" es la propuesta que representará a Chile en la Bienal de Diseño Londres 2021. En un momento donde la especie humana amenaza su propia sobrevivencia, y la idea de futuro y de innovación tecnológica sufre de una máxima exacerbación, este proyecto propone una experiencia estética y reflexiva para reconectar el diseño con su pasado, con la materialidad de la Tierra y una de sus tecnologías primigenias: el golpear rocas. Hacernos cargo del los tiempos geológicos nos obliga a pensar esta disciplina más allá del antropocentrismo moderno.

Methodologies at the University of Warwick, of which she is a professor and researcher. Out of her interest in the way ‹live› methods represent social worlds, she works on interdisciplinary methodologies, feminist and cultural theory, sociology of culture, consumer culture, and algorithms. Celia Lury is co-editor of Routledge Hand- book of Interdisciplinary Research Methods (Routledge, 2018), Inventive Methods, (Routledge, 2012), and Measure and Value (Blackwell, 2012), among other volumes.
In the following interview, Lury explains how she uses discussion and crit- ical re�lection on methods as a means to build interdisciplinarity. She emphasizes that live methods require being activated within a broader assemblage or ecology, and that an ethical orientation is needed when approaching and using methods. For Lury, methods cannot simply be conceived as instruments or tools. Instead, they should be perceived as practices. In this sense, one of the contributions that design makes to the debate on methodology is the specific relationship that designers have with practices and processes. In fact, emphasis on making allows designers to think about the material and semiotic properties of methods in a very
enabling way.

Antes de adoptar una postura normativa sobre el fenómeno, lo que sigue explora ciertas redefiniciones y trasformaciones que está instaurando este paradigma de gestión inteligente de la ciudad. Con este objetivo se contrastarán dos enfoques contrapuestos (críticos y optimistas) respecto a los efectos de la introducción del concepto de Smart City. Veremos, sin embrago, que ambos enfoques aportan y contribuyen a comprender
la naturaleza e implicancias de las tecnologías en la vida urbana. Finalmente, se presentarán dos casos de muni cipios en Santiago de Chile: El primero en el campo de la movilidad y el segundo en la gestión del aseo urbano. Estos casos constituyen dos esfuerzos concretos por in troducir mayor inteligencia y eficiencia en la resolución de problemas urbanos contemporáneos.
