The deXmat team has spent an inspiring few days at the Design History Society Annual Conference in Brno. This year's iteration of the conference was dedicated to the theme Design in an Age of Uncertainty. The event provided an excellent opportunity for us to present our project collectively.
Another year, another mining town to visit - again with the rest of the Material Ecologies of Design team.
With the rest of the Material Ecologies of Design group, we went on a most educational field trip to Røros.
Elín Margot Ármannsdóttir joins the deXmat project as Doctoral Fellow.
For the 2025/2025 academic year, the deXmat team is setting up camp at the Centre for Advanced Study at the at The Norwegian Academy of Science and Letters.
The Danish design magazine Formkraft has published a conversation between deXmat Advisory Board member Ingrid Halland and PI Kjetil Fallan about our shared interest in material ecologies of design, which is the topic we will be exploring this coming year as co-PIs of the project Material Ecologies of Design at the Centre for Advanced Studies (CAS).
deXmat is making new connections.
deXmat has got a brand new visual profile.
Kjetil Fallan will give a lecture on the relations between materials and landscapes in design history at the symposium Reimagining Rural: Engaging with Land and Meaning in Rural Spaces.
Dr. Mark Thomas Young joins the deXmat project as Postdoctoral Fellow. Mark’s contribution to deXmat aims to explore metabolic processes of consumer objects, by examining how artifacts serve as sites through which materials flow in the form of replacement parts or consumables.
