How do knowledge workers represent their own condition? Through what categories of thought? Is the precariousness of the work of knowledge different from the precariousness of generic and undifferentiated work? This question aims to answer our empirical research through a broad social survey conducted through narrative biographical interviews carried out in multiple professional fields of knowledge work. Computer scientists, programmers, developers, telecommunications and university research workers, web designers and web workers, digital artists, trainers, researchers, industrial designers, journalists, translators, photographers, were interviewed during some important “events” of the new Turin media between the end of 2006 and the beginning of 2007: Virtuality, Linux Day, Artissima, Film Festival. The choice was to favour a path of research in the field, based on the progressive implementation of the definition of the “object” of study, which in turn is an active part in the research process through the “method” of research and narration. It was not really a question of choosing a method, nor simply bringing back a thought on experience, but a way of creating it, of giving it form and of questioning it at the same time. To think and narrate the experience was not, or is not alone, to realise it, to reflect it to analyse it, but to overcome it. Starting from these basic “methodological” and epistemological choices, our field study was carried out.
