Bodies of Work — Embodiment, Employment and Labour to 2040 and Beyond

Fri, Feb. 07 2014 - 09:00
Room 20 (Level 3)

With an eye to 2040, this workshop explores the role and status of the human body at work. Projecting forward from current trends around automation, outsourcing, identity and employment to develop a set of scenarios, and drawing on contemporary artefacts, artworks, fictions, and our own experiences of workplace and labour practices, participants will work together to prototype a series of interventions appropriate to the specific needs and circumstances of these future worlds.
