Ever since TIME magazine's 1983 'Man of the Year' was the PC, we have been led to believe that our domestic spaces have been colonized by digital technology. Too little attention has been paid to the domestic spaces and inhabitants impacted by this, and critical posthumanism has been captured by a picture of humanity overly indebted to digital technologies and their largely male progenitors. By applying feminist theory to posthumanism, this work recovers the plethora of sophisticated human-technology mediations associated with the home and practiced primarily by women, the elderly, infants, the disabled and across cultures globally, challenging dominant, contemporary visions of a future humanity.

Authors Dennis M. Weiss and Colbey Emmerson Reid look at various iterations of the posthuman and assert the need for alternative, feminist readings that emphasize different standpoints from which to assess people, places, and products. Chapters address the impact of posthumanism on design theory and look at familiar domestic objects, with different attributes from those typically affiliated with technology and the future, such as clothing, textiles, ceramics, furniture and wallpaper. They reveal their unhomely, extra-human qualities and offer a much-needed perspective on domestic spaces and practices, revivifying the home as a site of species transformation and pushing beyond traditional understandings of person, mothering, families and care-giving to highlight a range of critically-overlooked mediated materialisms and embodiments affiliated with domestic space.

By focusing on the neglected intersection of the posthuman with the home and exploring domestic posthuman design, Designing the Domestic Posthuman offers a vision of a future humanity that retains identity, integrity and considers our relationship to others, to the world and things in it. This book widens the lens of critical focus in posthumanism, feminist philosophy and design and presents an alternative, inclusive design framework for the future.

Arvustused

As design begins the important project of defining its posthuman and more-than-human agendas, this book offers a timely domestic perspective centred upon relationality and care. In doing so, it upends conventional accounts of the future of the home and demonstrates, once again, that what may be is not yet determined * Dr Brian Dixon, Head of Belfast School of Art * In an era filled with chatter about extraordinary technologies such as quantum computers, sentient AI, and cyborgs, we often find ourselves captivated by visions of a posthuman future emerging from these innovations. Designing the Domestic Posthuman stands out as an exceptional book because it takes a different path. Rather than focusing on these remarkable technologies, it delves into the realm of the ordinary, the everyday, and the domestic. Within its pages, the authors explore the world of appliances, pottery, and textiles, all under the premise that home is a posthuman workshop. This book offers a posthumanism accessible to all, one that embraces everyone, including even our grandmothers. * Alberto Romele, Associate Professor of media studies, Sorbonne Nouvelle University *
