(2016) Researching a posthuman world, Basingstoke, Palgrave Macmillan.
We present our first four heuristics for interviewing objects: gathering anecdotes, following the actors, listening for the invitational quality of things, and studying breakdowns, accidents, and anomalies. These heuristics focus on attuning the reader to the objects and things of practice, and on gathering the kinds of qualitative material needed for further posthuman reflection and analysis. Each heuristic begins with suggested object interview questions and is followed by an in-depth description of the heuristic's theoretical underpinnings, practical applications, and examples.
