The increasing possibilities of the ubiquitous world of the (internet of things) IoT, will not only be installed in our environment but also be attached to the human body. Generating services in which the participant has become as connective to its surrounding as the devices installed to serve them. Thereby expanding the reliance on the rapidly developing algorithms to advise and even control, human’s daily lives, also known as algorithmic governmentality.

This new agency, that is participating/governing (in) present days ecologies, require a certain input in the form of data. Which depending on the agency’s responsibilities and services could exist out of personal data, generating and the whole scale of technical, practical, social and ethical challenges. As these developments transition from the ‘realm of artefacts’ into the ‘realm of architecture’, it becomes the responsibility of the architect/spatial designer how to deal with this apparatus and the associated challenges. Unfortunately, the adaptation of these artefacts are predominantly focused on the optimization of efficiency, cost and sustainability, thereby ignoring the socio-spatial matters
of architecture in terms of interactions between its inhabitants.
