Old library system used for storing stones
Published Sep. 18, 2026 10:17 AM

The choice of materials in product design plays a central role in the sustainability of a product. The Sustainable Futures Lab has a Materials Library of Stones. Each stone contains one or more minerals needed to make our digital products and our technologies for non-fossil energy production, such as wind turbines, batteries, and solar panels. Each stone has a past, present, and future. How can we interact with these stones to make their lives visible?

The choice of materials for the design of a product plays a central role in the sustainability of a product. The Sustainability Lab owns a materials library of stones. Each stone contains one or more of the minerals needed to make our digital products and our technologies for non-fossil energy production, such as wind turbines, batteries, and solar panels. Each stone (mineral) has a past, present, and future. In what ways can we interact with these stones to make their lives visible?

NordiCHI 2020 workshop

 

The aim of this workshop is to address the role that human autonomy presently receives in HCI research and how “autonomous technologies” might challenge, rather than facilitate human autonomy. We acknowledge a need for new ways of understanding HCI and interaction design as digital technologies develop in the “4th wave”. In this workshop, participants are invited to a discussion where the autonomous human-being—who can act autonomously with autonomous technologies—is emphasized, beyond simple human control to a more flexible, sophisticated, subtle, and sustainable autonomy.
