Luna Maurer (Studio Moniker) on Designing Friction đ„

I hope you are doing well!
Two weeks ago, I was at the Iterations conference in sâHertogenbosch (Netherlands) and there she was: Luna Maurer! Iâve known Lunaâs work for many years, together with Roel Wouters and Jonathan Puckey she co-founded the famous Studio Moniker, which pushed and explored the boundaries of web technologies. After the studio was dissolved, she is now going her own way as a performance and media artist. On the conference Iâve had the pleasure to see her performance âEmoticons donât have wrinklesâ, which is a powerful rant against big tech and an ode to âfrictionâ.
We met digitally after the conference to talk about a whole range of exciting topics: From her work as a designer for interactive applications at Moniker, to her Designing Friction Manifesto, to the big and important question of how technology affects our times today and if and how we as designers can do to steer it all in a good direction. And surprisingly, it was also about an author we both love very much, Hartmut Rosa.
In the end I also found clear words to explain why creative coding courses at academic institutions are so difficult under the wrong conditions.
Tune in and enjoy the conversation! đ§
And now I wish you a warm and calm christmas time!
You'll hear back from me in the next year! đ
