Abstract

This article explores how a diffractive methodology can enrich research on organizational space and the senses. Through the creation of interferences, a diffractive methodology directs attention to how differences in sensing are created in the ongoing production of space and what the effects of these are. By using examples from an ethnographic study of the Hub, a university-based entrepreneurship space designed to invoke positive “buzz”, the article illustrates how a diffractive methodology allows for the exploration of the sensory design of space and how it governs the possibilities of sensing among participants. The article contributes to organizational research by demonstrating how a diffractive methodology can be utilized to explore sensing as a spatial, unstable achievement and by highlighting how differences in the possibilities of sensing can be an important analytical starting point.

间隔感:对组织空间的衍射解读

本文探讨了衍射方法如何丰富对组织空间和意义的研究。通过产生干扰，衍射方法将注意力集中在正在进行的空间生产中如何产生传感差异，以及这些差异的影响。通过使用Hub的人种学研究的例子，本文阐述了衍射方法如何允许探索空间的感官设计，以及它如何控制参与者之间感知的可能性。Hub是一个基于大学的创业空间，旨在唤起积极的“嗡嗡声”。这篇文章展示了如何利用衍射方法来探索传感这一空间不稳定的成就，并强调了传感可能性的差异如何成为重要的分析起点，从而为组织研究做出了贡献。
