“…Indeed, there are yet more technoscience frontiers like these that are best probed through dialogues between social scientists, designers, and engineers. This would not only allow for a diversification of perspectives from different human and non-human positionalities but also encourage a closer adherence to how technical things actually (do not) work, on the ground (see also Brady and Lin, 2024;Leszczynski and Elwood, 2022).…”

Over the past decade, geographical scholarship has grown steadily enamoured with all things technical. In some ways, such a focus is an outflow of the recent philosophical turn towards critical realism, which has encouraged a keener eye on more-than-human worlds. It demands careful delineations and understandings of the multi-stranded relationships between humans, technical objects, organisms, energies, and artificial intelligences that exceed anthropocentric epistemologies. This commentary seeks to address the challenges of studying the ‘technical’ in relation to the futures of geographical thought and praxis by proposing three strategies that might be developed in geographical research. These are, namely, the acquisition of a stronger grasp of technoscience expertise, care in following non-human things over time, and openness to interdisciplinary research. As more geographers enter into the fold of investigating ‘technical’ things, developing these skills would be invaluable to producing innovative spatial knowledge about these cryptic worlds.
