What is the validity of different approaches to materiality in relation to the vital problems of our time?
Can materials be deployed to create environments which predict user behaviour and control social relations and experiences?
What trans-historical correspondences can be detected in contemporary approaches to materiality, and how do these challenge, imitate and expand on previous thinking?
