Temporalities of More-than-Human Design
Submit to the Temporalities of More-than-Human Design track at DRS2026! Topics include:
Visual, physical, multisensorial representations that explore ways to surface entangled more-than-human temporalities, as well as reflections on how different temporal representations could shape sense-making and design.
Practices and processes that consider extended temporal scales of material transformation, geological formations, and planetary life.
Temporal design investigations that incorporate a sense of ‘response-ability’ towards planetary life, including ways of noticing, attuning, and orchestrating more-than-human times.
Designerly ways of negotiating and coordinating more-than-human temporalities, potentially situating these within dominant approaches of capitalist time.
Etico-onto-epistemological reflections on time and design, or how different temporal expressions can be seen as emerging through ‘mutual constitution of entangled agencies’, with design facilitating/hindering these relationships and processes.
Organized by Larissa Pschetz, Gizem Oktay, Doris Kosminsky, Kathy Vones, Valentina Nisi, Marta Ferreira, Fiona Bell, Jiwei Zhou, and Keili Koppel
