Chapter 5 claims to show that the making of technology and the material agency of objects can be analyzed analogously to the making of meaning through words and speech acts. It connects the social pragmatist approach of technical practice and symbolic interagency (Kant, Dewey, Mead) with the linguistic concept of pragmatics and speech acts (Peirce, Wittgenstein, Austin). It emphasizes how the objectification process of both language and technology evolve from early stages of signs and tools in practical contexts to encoded collections of grammatical rules and archives of technical tools. In the face of digital technologies, the importance of this extended pragmatist/pragmatics approach seems to be more appropriate to understand, conceptualize, and design interfaces and larger constellations built of distributed agencies across people, machines, and digital programs.
