Knowledge translations Knowledge has to be translated from implicit to explicit and from participants to the design process. The meaning and value of the knowledge has to stay as intact as possible.X0,8X 5. Generative Iterations integratessessions with the design process.Through iterations, knowledgeis elicited, interpreted and re-introduced to actors. Generative Iterations 6.

EnactEnactment enables participants to envision andreflect upon new experiences.Enactment is done between teams ofparticipants, which creates furthernegotiations. 10. A process that aligns and mediates knowledgebetween participants and creates a commonunderstanding, through negotiations.Intermediary Objects Translates Mediates RepresentsGenerative prototypesBoujut & Blanco 2003 11. Reliving the session Recording impartially creates an intermediary. Negotiations make the video act as an intermediary object that ensures a common representation within the design team. Knowledge shown in the video is translated into post-its as representations. 12. Knowledge is combined to reveal correlations betweenknowledge from interviews, research and sessions.Negotiations while grouping and categorising post-its. Structuring knowledge Nonaka, 1994 13. Development processKnowledge from sessionsand other sources applied.When decisions are made, uncertaintiesarise and a new iteration is initiated. 14. Objects for translationsIntermediary objects are a process that allows the value andmeaning of knowledge to be elicited and translated. 15. The partiality of knowledge createsan uncertainty to the project.Conducting several sessions and iterations minimises the gaps.Partial knowledge 16. Questions?
