Relational architectures and wearable space: Smart schools and the politics of ubiquitous sensation (2019)
Journal Article
de Freitas, E., Rousell, D., & Jäger, N. (2020). Relational architectures and wearable space: Smart schools and the politics of ubiquitous sensation. Research in Education, 107(1), 10-32. https://doi.org/10.1177/0034523719883667

This paper undertakes an analysis of the "smart school" as a building that both senses and manages bodies through sensory data. The authors argue that smart schools produce a situation of ubiquitous sensation in which learning environments are contin...

We spend most of our lives in buildings where we interact with people that occupy the same space. A common and intuitive form of interaction with others is to synchronise our own behaviour with theirs, and such interpersonal synchrony can have variou...
