... is the topic of my latest poster presentation, which I discussed at the 2020 Off the Lip Conference on Cognitive Innovation - at the University of the Philippines in Los Banos, January 2020. I discussed how the application of 'design thinking' as a form of technology (and as defined by Tim Brown) to Curiosity workshops in livelihood and housing resulted in the articulation of political orientations and new ways of working.

I drew inspiration from Sarah Whatmore (2013), who analysed how urban flood models influenced the negotiation and generation of ways both scientists and residents became political, together. I plan to apply the same thinking to materials in my ongoing doctoral research on post-disaster participatory design, and thought that the conference might be a good venue to test this ontological assumption via reflexive practice.
Looking to develop this into a full journal article soon.
