POSTCITY, Campus

NFT consists in the design of prototypes for research into possible haptic interfaces that explore anthropomorphic questions and new forms of ergonomics. The use of these speculative artifacts as instruments generates atmospheres through specific references to sci-fi, cyberpunk mythology and sound experimentation. Emphasis is placed on the problems associated with technological hybridization, body mutation and negative effects of this transformation process.
