Description/Abstract:

The installation was part of a research grant and year long theme of Sci-Si Vernaculars, happenings, projects and briefs intended to explore what the future might feel like. Often the future is post-apocalyptic, manically sublime or mono-aesthetically sterile, but where will the robots sleep, and could there be thatch on Mars? We are ever more motivated by the myth of technological connection, but this installation questions how do we relate to tactile experience in an environment where tactile experience is moderated by the existence of technology, suggesting the possibility of the mediation of digital fabrication and artificial materials with nature and tradition and of what importance that might be. Are we permanently in a state of tactile starvation, how can we encourage a future of tactile diversity?
