HOMO SAPIENS,

I HEAR YOU. SEMINAR 02: THE LAST SUPPER

On tables, carnivores and kitchen stories. 


As a homo-carnivorous species, we debated the power and politics of food as social actions. We met with designers who use bacteria to think through the future; all of which while you learn the process of creating absinthe. 

 

Homo Sapiens, I Hear You seeks to unravel new perspectives on what motivates us and explore whether the modern practice of design addresses our essential needs - from the most basic functions (eating, sleeping, etc.) to the more fulfilling (self-improvement, practicing sports).

 

Our February Seminar is SOLD OUT.

DR. NELLY BEN HAYOUN.

Dr. Nelly Ben Hayoun is a designer of extreme experiences that aims to bring the sublime to life. Dubbed the “Willy Wonka of Design,” Ben Hayoun is an award-winning French designer and filmmaker who creates multi-dimensional experiential projects at the intersection of science, theatre, politics and Design. Wired awarded her their inaugural Innovation Fellowship in 2014, and Icon magazine, Dezeen and Creative Review recognized Dr. Ben Hayoun as one of the top 50 designers 'shaping the future' for her pioneering “total bombardment” design philosophy.


Her laboratory, NBH Studios, is on a mission to bring chaos to the world; she is the founder and director of the International Space Orchestra the world’s first orchestra of NASA space scientists and astronauts; and most recently she founded the University of the Underground, a subversive tuition-free educative and cultural programme that is on course to modify the status quo in public institutions and academia.

A/D/O Design Academy: March 2018 Workshop
$20.00

On air, wind and lungs. This month starts... in our lungs! Together we are dissecting them to better understand the mechanism of life as we know it: Oxygen. What is it? Where do we find it? And how can we grow oxygen on other planets. This session will investigate new space science such as Terraforming and other outer space colonisation; insects which breathe, breathless and speechless events. Learn how to beatbox and discover new forms of life as you go along. Join us as homo-O2 and discover what makes the asphalt and the horizon while studying frogs. This month: BREATHE IT IN!

Start: Mon Mar 12th 6:00pm
