Profile

I do research on human-plant relations and how digital interactive technological artefacts can be designed to help extend our attunement towards plants, in order to understand plants as living, sensing entities rather than something static in the background.

I approach this through posthumanism and construction-based design research. In my project I do multispecies ethnographical studies of people's gardens, and with insights from fieldwork I design and build physical technologies that makes plant life visible and sensible for humans.

Teaching activities

I have taught the course "Aesthetic Programming" for bachelor students in digital design, and previously also an elective course "Critical Design in Practice" for master's students.
