An Interface of Anticipated Care


An Interface of Anticipated Care


An interface of anticipated care uses interactive web design to query the use of predictive and emotive technologies in architecture and urbanism.
File under
Type of project
  • New alliances

The research project follows evocative instances of historical reconstruction, and predictive, and often emotive technologies in representations of the built environment. Building on previous artistic research projects around the future of architecture, the project presents instances of anticipated or imagined emotional states generated by the built environment. Adopting a poetic, call-and-response format, the project attunes us to affective experiences of the built environment, asking: What emotional states are anticipated or imagined at the time of design? How do these anticipations converge or diverge from everyday aesthetic and affective experiences? This follows a body of research focused on the intersection of contested spatial sites and politics, urban technologies and visualization techniques, and artistic and community parallel or counter-planning practices.
