ignorance in science

It’s good you’re here.

Some bodies do some things, and others do others. Prosthetics, bodily capacity, expanded engineering and creative research, flexible adaptation, possible futures, interdependence, collaborative design, inclusive systems, productive uncertainty, and critical making—these things drive our work.

We hope—we do try—to cultivate humility in the face of complexity.

Please be in touch.
