Still Human “Architecture in the Age of Selfies and Surveillance” was my Master of Architecture thesis project. For nearly a year, I investigated how architecture could enhance social relationships, physical abilities, and spatial agency if buildings were designed around digital information, communication technologies, and media devices.
1. where the entire human body is a point of gesture control
2. people can experience more control (offline and online) over their space and social interactions
Since its inception, architecture has not designed buildings around our digital capabilities. For example, think of a moment when you’ve messaged someone who is in the same room or building. Your cell phone or computer allows you to bypass the other people in the room or the walls that separate you from the other person. Our buildings should allow us to do the same.
