Electric Corset: artefacts in the design process

Research output: Contribution to conference › Other

Abstract / Description of output

In this talk, Sarah Kettley presented the Electric Corset project as an example of doing design anthropology through making. Kjaersgaard et al (2016:5) describe design anthropology as an exploration of the possible, generating speculative and co-produced knowledge. Electric Corset was concerned with the exploration of possible forms of future wearable technologies, and the shape of possible design and craft practices involved. In this way, it was a project of speculative praxis, which asked how wearables might become.
