Emerging Technologies, such as Artificial intelligence and emerging materials, trigger us to make and study things where the natural and the artificial meet. It also evokes questions such as: 'What makes us human?' or, 'How do we live our lives in times of planetary and economic crises?'

5 Design Research Themes

Politics of Design How do designers contribute to change at the complex intersections of social structures, cultural differences, biases, stereotypes, and power differences? Climate Futures Now Design is a future-oriented practice. How to envision possible futures on a troubled planet, speculate about practices of tomorrow, and call to action? More than Human How can we create value for future habitats that are natural for the ‘life’ and growth of humans and nonhumans? Disentangling AI, Design & Society How to deal with sociotechnical complexity and shaping change? Making Matters With critical debates on the future directions of making in full swing, How do crafters of advanced enabling technologies make the new everyday a reality? Read more about these themes and find all of our 45 projects via our website: https://www.4tu.nl/du/editions/ddw23/ and join our DesignUnited.Dialogues Programm in Microlab 23-27 October!
