title = "Disentangling participation through time and interaction spaces–the case of IT design for energy demand management",
abstract = "Participatory Design has recently seen growing interest in developing critical forms of reflexivity able to disentangle the complexity of participatory ensembles. This article makes a methodological contribution to this endeavour. Drawing on socio-cognitive analyses of collaborative design, it proposes the frame of {\textquoteleft}interaction spaces{\textquoteright} as a scaffolding tool for conducting retrospective analyses of participatory design processes. The paper uses the {\textquoteleft}interaction spaces{\textquoteright} frame to analyse the three years of collaborative activities of the CIVIS Project. Through a longitudinal and multi-dimensional account of participatory dynamics involved in the designing, prototyping and testing of an IT platform for home energy management, the frame evidences how participatory configurations evolve over time; it makes clearer the characteristics of participation as partial and overtaken; and it identifies moments of cross-participation as potential basis for the boundary-spanning of design issues.",
