2017 Spring | Stuff

Through Stuff, we put a spotlight on our relation to objects, the things we covet, treasure, or deem disposable. We explored the varying cultural and social relations that develop around stuff, from hoarding and curating, to art-making and storytelling. But we will explored Stuff as a matter for policy, whether in devising healthcare systems, stewarding the commons, electing politicians, or sharing and protecting information. And, as more and more things live in “the cloud,” we looked at how what we accumulate changes.
