Me

🐙 I have a background in product design (school Boulle & ENS Paris-Saclay). I am currently doinh a phD by practice in design and teach at university of Toulouse (south of France).

I am the author of a podcast, Bio Is The New Black, that ties together design, biology and technology. I recently published a paper in the current issues of Flusser Studies (30)Vampyroteuthis Infernalis as Bioluminescent Lighthouse to Think among the Living. Some Mutations: From 1981 to 1991. I will share with you this research-creation work.

What forms of knowledge do research/creative approaches in design take?

The forms of knowledge produced by research-creation are at once situated*, material, embodied, projective, sensitive and speculative*. This knowledge comes from situations: those in the ground, take on a material dimension, an objective dimension by reason of their nature: these are books, game rules, photographs, collections of objects, posters, fanzines, atlases, etc. It is projective because it is resolutely turned towards a future project, sensitive because it makes us aware of a phenomenon that was not previously perceptible, and speculative in the sense that it is in a form of open possibilities: its form is not prescriptive but descriptive.
