A ceramic bowl with embedded electronics tilts unpredictably multiple times daily and six trained philosophers live with it across five households for 12 weeks with interviews every four weeks. Participants rig a surveillance trap (paper and tin cup) to catch tilts, treat the object as careworthy or creepy, and report shifting stabilities. The study uses material speculation and postphenomenology to show background relations, emergent alterity, and a relational ontology where object and subject coconstitute unexpected behaviors.
