brainstorming questions

what questions can we ask artifacts (vs. about them)?

what is a 'designed object' (how is it different than a normal object)?

does a designed object have characteristics that a ‘normal’ object does not?

what are the potential and pitfalls of translating ‘things’ (and their histories) into data?

Thinking with Things

what is the best way to document a designed object's narrative or biography? 

what are the most important characteristics/elements/etc. to capture about each object?
