Autocraft Runners : Anticipating a future of customized physiology and advanced body hacking. Crafting footwear through tissue engineering for enhanced long-distance running.Wolfgang, Laimer January 2024 (has links)
This work explores the fusion of bio-technology and sports footwear design and envisions a future where people enhance their physiology to meet their specific needs. Through tissue engineering, the wearer’s own biomaterials are utilized to optimize performance and customization. It seeks to redefine the enhancement of long-distance running by creating a physical bond between footwear and feet. Based on both design fiction and industrial design, the project speculates on the impact of biotechnological advances. It reflects a curiosity-driven exploration of the human body and its potential transformation. The thesis concludes with reflections on such innovations in footwear design and the role of design fiction in imagining future possibilities. It forms a contribution to Design Ecologies and illustrates the intersection of design, ecology, biology, and fiction, in addressing contemporary challenges.
