1. As physical objects in the home become embedded with increasing smartness and autonomy, what relationships do we form with them? 2. What role does human agency play in a world where mundane objects and environments begin to gain a level of agency and autonomy? 3. How will smart objects and devices influence the rhythms and routines of our lives, and ours to theirs, and how will this in turn change our cultures, beliefs and preferences?

The real future of technology is human.

Just so I can come back to this, if along the way I lose sight of what really is important to achieve for my thesis.
