Inte feel good, inte feel bad, bara feeling strange.

Peterson, Frida January 2018 (has links)
It is tragic that one can never be a child again. It is equally tragic to always remain a child. I see my work as a story. In this story, however, I don't want to say exactly how it is or how it was. Just how it feels. My work straddles the border between desire and material. I do whatever feels right and slowly from that, a setting, a landscape of materialized feelings and thoughts are painted into being. In Latin, "textere" means "to merge", which refers to both text and textile. "Merge" is a good word for my work. I don't particularly like to write, which is why I like to work with weaving and embroidery. Different paths, events, thoughts, threads and people are woven together and form a context, a story. The various objects are merged into sentences, timing and punchlines.

Your New Best Friends: An Exploration of Furby, Siri, and Other Sociable Electronics

Forbes, Avery 01 July 2021 (has links)
Your New Best Friends: An Exploration of Furby, Siri and Other Sociable Electronics is focused around interactive electronic systems and the effect these systems can have on our human psyches. My work focuses on two particular periods of development: the late 80’s to early 90’s, and the 2010’s to present. One period represents my childhood and the other my early adulthood. By comparing the two I can examine trends in the ways we engage with robotics and can better understand the ubiquity of electronically mediated interactions today. I utilize these new understandings to manipulate the capabilities of devices from both periods to create pieces that communicate care in a new way, sparking a moment of joy for the viewer while also increasing the awareness of the failings of devices when compared with true human interaction.
