Future Domestic Robots: Design Fiction and the Home of the Future

Future Domestic Robots: Design Fiction and the Home of the Future

Please join the Arthur C. Clarke Center for Human Imagination for an evening with Bruce Sterling (cyberpunk visionary, futurist, and design theorist) and Jasmina Tešanović (writer, activist, and filmmaker), in which they will discuss two recent projects of speculative design. Jasmina Tešanović will discuss Casa Jasmina, a mix of lab, gallery space, and B&B in Turin, Italy, that aims to integrate traditional Italian skills in furniture and interior design with emergent skills in Italian open-source electronics as applied to “the internet of Things in the Home.” Bruce Sterling will discuss the upcoming installation for the Vitra Design Museum in Germany, which he and Jasmina have been in residence at the Clarke Center to incubate. Location: Atkinson Auditorium, first floor of Qualcomm Institute/Calit2. The event is free and open to the public. Discussion begins at 6:00pm.
