Technologies and infrastructures are ‘made’, constructed and designed, and hence the habitats of our current everyday lives across the globe.
The ‘setting aside for’ dimension of technologies is about design. Spaces, systems, artefacts are designed with more or less clear intentions and awareness to their repercussions. In this PHTR conference, we want to put emphasis on the ‘making’ and designing of the contemporary in order to shed light on the conditions that governs our contemporary lives, and shapes our futures. The world needs design as both an analytical and reflective tool, and design as activism and interventionism.

We ask the question: How can we think the Techno-Anthropocene and at the same time indicate possible strategies and programs for moving? In other words how can we design the Techno-Anthropocene?

This 3rd Philosophy of Human-Technology Relations Conference open for both approaches, and possible hybrids in between.
