Abstract
For designers in the area of "socially and politically oriented design," complex societal issues need to be tackled. Within those activities, actions, structures, processes, and power relations need to be analysed and understood. The connecting characteristic between all these elements is its intangibility. These elements can be influenced and permeated by the, also immaterial, digital dimension. Additionally, there are areas of everyday life, which are difficult to verbalise. This so-called "tacit knowledge"1 is hidden in daily routines, habits, and actions that make this task – to understand immaterial structures and relations – even more complicated.
