The Analogue Speaks from Within the Digital

Bringing together the fields of architecture, art, media, and technology, ‘Analogue Fractures in Design Networks’ reopens the discussion on the role of analogue production methods in contemporary design practices.

In today's production environment, surrounded by digital infrastructures, analogue qualities such as intuition, manual labour, material sensitivity and spatial memory are gaining new meaning. This event argues that the analogue is not merely a trace of the past, but can also be a form of criticism and resistance in the digital age.
