godt citat af Akrich

For some time sociologists of technology have argued that when technologists define the characteristics of
their objects, they necessarily make hypothesis about the entities that make up the world into which the
object is to be inserted. Designers thus define actors with specific tastes, competences, motives,
aspirations, political prejudices, and the rest,
A large part of the work of innovators is that of “inscribing” this vision of (or prediction about) the world in the
technical content of the new object.
To be sure, it may be that no actors will come forward to play the roles envisaged by the designer. Or users
may define quite different roles of their own.
[Akrich, The De-Scription of Technical Objects, 1992]
