Negotiating uncertainty: Process, artifact, and discourse in a case study of technologies to address SIDS

Title: Negotiating uncertainty: Process, artifact, and discourse in a case study of technologies to address SIDS
Format: Conference
Publication Date: December 2011
Description: We describe the creative strategies used to develop two technologies that address sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). An engineer and his team developed one of the technologies and an artist developed the other. We discuss the creative strategies and the resulting technologies in terms of their negotiation of uncertainties occurring at many levels: the uncertainty of the creative process, the uncertainty of SIDS, and the uncertainty inherent in technological interventions for SIDS. © 2011 ACM.
