– A Device that Assists in Remembering Something A design proposal inspired by how we humans collect, store and display objects in the home. How objects we want to remember are forgotten and hidden away for various reasons, behind this backdrop of storage that our homes have begun to consist of. These objects, connected to… Continue reading Emma Stocklassa

The Fall was preceded by a misstep. We are the first to admit this, but who were We, before this Fall? We had no personality, no face. Who are you to blame such a man? It does not matter to Us. Once exiled, We stood dazed. When hungry, We whistled, whereupon animals came and bared… Continue reading Palle Ankersen

From the confines of our homes, we can reinvent ourselves, engage in passive activism and monetize our bodies to break barriers of work and leisure—an ongoing metamorphosis into unsettled selves, bodies reconstructed with too many organs. My work explores technology from perspectives of disability. What is it to be enabled? Using emerging AI, simulation, and… Continue reading Markus Björkberger
