Rehousing Technosphere from Wang & Söderström on Vimeo.
This speculative animated film takes place on Earth in a distant future. It offers glimpses into how life forms adapt to a new planetary ecology. New species exploit a degrading layer of the planet’s crust by digging, foraging, and designing new homes. What is toxic for one species is a perfect habitat for another. Among the remnants of the Anthropocene, life moves.
Director: Wang & Söderström
Animation: Wang & Söderström
Sound: Samad Boughalam, CDXQ Studio
Voice-Over: Samad Boughalam, CDXQ Studio
Typeface: 'Diagonal Grotesk', Kanon Foundry

An Exploration Into Digital And Physical Design With Wang & Söderström
sirene art that strives toward "mind tickling experiences."
We always liked to create stuff, but it wasn't certain which field. We have had periods of wanting to become artists, architects, and interior designers, whilst at the same time wanting to create films or music. Probably why we are so broad today.
We want to throw out pre-existing conventions regarding the digital, emphasizing the emotional and tactile side of materials, objects, and textures to give digital a more human, relatable quality
We wish the viewers are able to imagine the tactile sensation from knowing the real-life experience. What we are interested in is finding ways to capture the familiar but adding the weirdness. We try to cast the viewer out of their everyday loop by working with unexpected experiences in a glitch where the physical and digital world meet.
We want to play with the viewers past experiences with certain sensory properties. Because a person’s memory influences how his or her mind relates to seeing these properties again in the future
As humans, we are inherently sensory. As society progresses into the future, the impact of technology on different aspects of our lives will continue to increase. We want to show that technology can be something else.
There is a phenomenon called 'Synesthesia' which is an involuntary happening that collects sensory information from one sense and transfers it to another. It is an on-going and open question for us if synesthesia can also be revoked. And we are exploring ways to evoke other senses like taste and touch by visually working with materials in a new way.
Analysis: The design duo comes from a broad creative background. Their focus is on creating sensory experiences and evoking the senses through unexpected materials and adding weirdness to the familiar. By working with known materials in a new way, they can evoke touch and taste and transfer information from one sense to another. Their practice is one that is important for the future of creatives and how we will live in a digital age.
Insights: I am very intrigued by the approach that Wang & Söderström have towards art and design. That they want to include the senses into the digital world is very connected to my project, only that I believe we should focus on the senses in the now and take time off from the digital, which is of course a more traditional approach. Still, I very much agree with them that the future will be digital anyways, so we should make it a place where we can still experience our senses and get to know our own reactions in a digital world.
Conclusion: I am inspired by their work and want to use a similar approach to sensory experiences, only that my process doesn't start digitally but physically. They approach design and art in a holistic way, which I am also aiming to do. By combining different art forms, a new synergy can form that approach things in a more innovative way.
