Projects
Our cluster explores the changing landscape of the technosphere and trains designers, artists, social scientists, and humanities scholars in new methods and practices. We ask:
How does design and technology produce different futures? What are the political and ethical implications of different conceptions of technology, environment, and (in) security? How do notions of temporality, environment, and life get shaped and in turn shape large-scale high-technology projects at different scales? How do we imagine a future that will be more plural, diverse, and just than the current modes of resource extraction, extinction, and violence being propagated in the name of technical progress?
