Deploying an ‘Out of Space' Technology: A Case Study of Non-Human Resistance
This study investigates how environments into which new technologies are introduced interact and interfere with the deployment process, the deployed technologies as well as the research conducted. The material that is used in this study draws from the N4C project development and deployment of Delay...
