We explore how design can bridge the gap between people and emerging science and technology.
デザインを通じて、人々と新たな科学・技術との距離を縮める方法を探求しています。
Our work is always carried out in collaboration—primarily with scientists and engineers—and is currently guided by two goals:
- To make science and technology more accessible and inclusive.
- To design technologies that inspire and support people in navigating the challenges of a changing world.
Through every collaboration, we expand the potential of design—believing that this collaborative approach can help shape a future that is more inclusive, accessible, and sustainable, not only for humans but also for more-than-human beings.
Our work is closely affiliated with the DLX Design Lab, particularly through the Treasure Hunting projects.
02.Talking with Neurons In collaboration with Ikeuchi Lab, IIS, UTokyo
2022–2024
Talking with Neurons is an interactive installation that enables participants to remotely engage with in vitro neural circuits. By sending voice inputs, they receive audiovisual feedback representing the neurons’ responses. The installation offers a unique opportunity to explore the potential and limitations of neural organoids, while also providing a rare glimpse into the laboratory setting.
