Abstract

Digital media technologies allow the systems to be created that are rhetorical and create alternate values and experiences. Building objects that question these assumptions can help to reframe technological artifacts. Building inexpensive prototyping platforms that augment everyday objects in minimalist ways is a proposal for an alternative to existing, human-centered Internet of Things (IoT) devices. These platforms begin to move towards interactions among and between things as a bottom-up design study into ubiquitous small-scale computing and its aesthetic applications.
