An idea worth spreadingIt's my fear that, at least psychologically, we might transform into cyborgs, unable to exist without the machines that have become part of us. That must not happen. I believe that it is of utmost importance that, in the future, we do not turn into computers, but stay human.
I'm passionate aboutIntertwining theory and practice in 'research through design' - building things we might have in the future, letting people try them out today.
