Description
Summary:This article addresses the relationships between artificial world production and sociocultural and environmental issues trying to enrich the dialogue between professional/academic design and vernacular design. To this end, we worked with data from a PhD research in progress; this latter is based on ethnographic research techniques, and has documented practices and material expressions pertaining to farmer and fisherman communities in the Barra do Rio Mamanguape region, Paraíba state, Brazilian Northeast. This analysis focuses on reading of the meanings built into the practices repertoire and into the artifacts that would be relevant to the discussion about the design responsibilities toward sociocultural and environmental issues. We found a series of practices and their correlated meanings that can be the base for projects emphasizing sociocultural and environmental variables relevant to artificial world production.
