My research is focused on developing Interaction Design as a material practice. I understand the computer as a material for design and experiment with it as such with the aim of creating new material expressions for and new ways of interacting with computational things. Through my work I also endeavour to deepen our understanding of the forgiving practice entailed in designing computational things specifically the negotiations of the physical form, the temporal form, and the interaction gestalt.

 

Alongside my basic research into interaction design I explore the power of critical and adversarial design as means to enable and entice critical and political reflection of where the brave new world will take us.
