Matt Wade, DARN acts as a methodological toolkit to equip strategic designers to reimagine, repair,
darn or improve the interaction between devices, actors, representations and networks within complex organizational universes.
Inspired by
Actor-Network Theory (ANT), the approach includes the addition of devices (D) and representations (R) as two critical new classes of elements that describe how responsibility for action is distributed in 21st Century situations and contexts.
