Agency and the cognitive processes of design

Project: Research

Project Details

Description

The activity of design is central to further studying the relationship between human beings and artefacts, and to discuss human agency.

The contribution of this study would provide evidence for a further understanding of the way that participants relate mind, body and materials during the process of design; which is also relevant for the current debate on extended/distributed cognition and material agency
