Innovation Dynamics: Sensitive and Technopoietic Cartographies in Living Labs through Research-Creation

Abstract

This article analyzes the innovation dynamics that emerge in living lab settings, drawing on research-creation processes developed between 2017 and 2023 within the Universidad Tecnológica de Pereira (Colombia). Through three analytical dimensions –technopoietic, technoanthropological, and technoaesthetic– the authors propose a methodological matrix for identifying innovative actions of creation, discovery, and invention in collaborative and transdisciplinary contexts. The article adopts a critical perspective and concludes by recognizing research creation as a situated practice of sensible knowledge production, in dialogue with significant contemporary debates.
