Self-efficacy in context
“In Defense of an Epistemic Ghost in the Shell” uses thought experiments to examine how systems can attribute collective achievements to individuals. It considers hidden work by relatives, legitimate refusal and information that creates duties without corresponding power to act.

“Design als Rekalibrierung” treats assistive design as a change in relationships between bodies, objects and practices. The work on conceptual blending adds cultural images of ageing and the relationship between self-perception and external attribution.
Novel for whom, obligatory for whom?
Novelty depends on perspective and the reference used for comparison. The contribution on observer-indexed novelty also asks how digital innovation redistributes authority, responsibilities and obligations. These questions inform the design of Habitat and our Living Lab methods.
