211: Technological appropriations for socio-spatial transformation in São Gonçalo do Bação
Original title: Apropriações tecnológicas para transformação sócio-espacial em São Gonçalo do Bação
Research in PORTUGUÊS
Based on a university teaching-research-extension experience in São Gonçalo do Bação (Minas Gerais, Brazil), this article discusses the use of digital technology as a way to expand the virtual, understood as an event in latent state, as a process of problematization and not of problem solving. Three digital interfaces developed with the common goal of encouraging questioning and the exercise of autonomy from different approaches and themes are presented. The interfaces seek to articulate the Flusserian idea of 'responsibility', regarded as the act of responding to others in a way that promotes an opening for people to continue the design process dialogically. In short, the interfaces indicate possibilities provided by digital technologies and exemplify ways in which they might drive processes towards social-spatial transformation.
