Design after extraction

In a world characterized by rapid change and uncertainty, I’ve come to realize that our instinct for control only exacerbates complexity. Amidst our urge to corral the vast intricacies of our world, only to find that we’ve magnified the challenge, I choose a different story about design and technology. One where design is not a tool to be wielded according to our intentions, but humble and adaptive attunement. And one where technology doesn’t just serve human needs, but helps us connect to other-than-human scales and sensibilities, opening up new possibilities for our collective survival.
