At NTNU (Norwegian University of Science and Technology), I am conducting a practice-based research for my PhD in design. I aim to explore how more-than-human research can be applied to design culture. I focus on human-material connections in design and making practices based on experimental trials and processes, to find ways to develop materials and artefacts that are more suited for living together with the world. Practically, I work with wool material and employ feltmaking technique, which is a craft technique used for compressing fibers with water and alkaline. Here are some example photos of the starting experimentations,
