Designing digital artifacts as transient assemblies with different digital materialities

Sociomaterial design of coordination in knowledge sharing : a heritage KMS reference architecture

“…In this sense, the design process itself should represent a meta-coordination process that allows building a KMS using available technologies, in other words, the KMS itself is a meta-coordinated system that enable meta-coordination between personal ecosystems for sharing knowledge. Noticeably, the type of materiality of the KMS is relative and determined by the materiality of the design process through which it is produced (Akoumianakis et al, 2015). In this sense, the meta-coordination can be instantiated through different prototypes based on different design processes and perceived in relation to different materials.…”
