In this interview, Germann Molz emphasized the idea that we must go beyond a moralistic view of technology. If we want to understand how people, places, mobile technologies, and digital or hybrid environments are intertwined, we need to change or adjust our analytical lenses. Rather than subscribing to technological determinism, she advocates for the concept of affordances.
