  • Soziotechnisches Modellieren. Zur Hervorbringung des Schlafs im Schlaflabor und bei der Selbstvermessung

    Open Access•Nico Wettmann, Dariuš Zifonun•ARTICLE•Zeitschrift für Soziologie•2026

    Dieser Beitrag analysiert Schlaflaboruntersuchung und digitale Selbstvermessung als Formen soziotechnischen Modellierens, die den Schlaf als wissensförmiges Objekt hervorbringen. Aus praxeologisch-mikrosoziologischer Perspektive untersuchen wir, wie technische Affordanzen, skriptförmige Wissensbestände und situative Praktiken zusammenwirken, um die Kontingenz des Schlafs zu managen: epistemische Unbestimmtheit wird durch Messungen, Klassifikation…

  • Negotiation of Sleepwalking in the Age of Algorithms

    Open Access•Svenja Reinhardt, Nico Wettmann•ARTICLE•Sociology of Health & Illness•2026

    Digital technologies, including sleep‐tracking devices and smart mattresses, are becoming increasingly prevalent for gaining certainty and insight into unconscious behaviours such as sleepwalking. Sleepwalking, also known as somnambulism, is difficult to diagnose because it is episodic and unpredictable. Drawing on ethnographic research in sleep medical facilities and online communities focused on sleep tracking, this study examines how algorithm…

  • Synchronising times

    Open Access•Frederik Peper, Nico Wettmann•ARTICLE•Convergence The International…•2025

    This article explores how waiting is an essential element in browser-based games. As a phenomenon that combines activity and passivity, waiting reflects the real-time mechanics of gameplay and illustrates the intertwining of simulative games with social and individual time structures. Drawing on a synthetic framework, the study demonstrates how players must synchronise their actions to align the game’s demands with their daily rhythms. RailwayOpe…

  • Corporeal Interactions inVRChat

    Open Access•Felix Krell, Nico Wettmann•ARTICLE•Symbolic Interaction•2023•Cited by: 5•References: 21

    Erving Goffman's work on interaction in everyday life focuses on joint spatio-temporal and face-to-face situations and denies the constitution of social situations via mediatized interaction. In contrast, we argue that shared immersive media such as Social Virtual Reality enable intense, delocalized forms of co-present interactions that constitute closeness and intimacy. By discussing Goffman in the context of current works that open up his persp…

  • Accounting von Körperbewegungen – Sport als instruktiver Fall für eine Soziologie der Bewertung

    Nico Wettmann•ARTICLE•Sport und Gesellschaft•2021

    Article Accounting von Körperbewegungen – Sport als instruktiver Fall für eine Soziologie der Bewertung: Frühjahrstagung 2020 der DGS-Sektion „Soziologie des Körpers und des Sports“ in Kooperation mit dem DFG-Netzwerk „Auf dem Weg in die Bewertungsgesellschaft?“ an der Katholischen Universität Eichstätt (digital), 16. und 23.10.2020 was published on April 1, 2021 in the journal Sport und Gesellschaft (volume 18, issue 1)

  • The Process of Pregnancy

    Open Access•Laura Völkle, Nico Wettmann•ARTICLE•Human Studies•2021•References: 30

    In this article, we reflect on the particular temporal structure of pregnancies and prenatal entities with the aim to contribute to the field of the sociology of pregnancy. Medical models and technology shape today’s notion of pregnancy as a linear, nine-month developmental process that leads to the birth of a child. Through ultrasound technology and prenatal examinations, prenatal entities have thus historically gained a present ‘being’ as a dev…
