The Anthropology and Design Exhibition (ADX) presents student projects which explore and experiment with anthropological and design research methods that open up new epistemological and creative possibilities, and illuminate our lived experiences and imaginations. The inaugural ADX seeks to formalize disciplinary synergies between anthropology and design, and takes place in VR space to enable experimental forms of interdisciplinary digital engagement. 

 

Facing intersecting global crises of public health, climate emergency, financial disparity, political turbulence, and technocracy, the need for collaboration between anthropologists and designers to make conscientious interventions is urgent. ADX 2021 makes a space for anthropologists and designers to interface, share work, and collaborate outside of disciplinary silos.

 

The exhibition provides a VR room, where presenters and attendees may gather, spectate, and discuss works being shown. Among our ranks, we have video, audio, photo, 3D, text, web-based and multimedia projects, spanning a range of topics including ethnographic community engagement, material studies, and critical and speculative design projects. There will be a chance for Exhibition attendees to interface with presenters, and for presenters to share ideas.

 

The Exhibition will kick off at 12pm on zoom and livestream, introducing attendees to the VR space and the projects. It will be followed by a series of programming including a workshop with critical design scholar Laura Forlano. Preliminary program below. More details to come. 

 

Presented by the Anthropology and Design Student Working Group, the XReality Center, and the Design and Technology Program at Parsons. This event is made possible with funding from The New School for Social Research's MA Project Award and Dean's Conference Fund.

Free and Open to the Public
