Ergonomic Futures von Tyler Coburn

"Ergonomic Futures" is a multi-part project that asks questions about contemporary “fitness” through the lens of speculative evolution. What are future scenarios for imagining new types of human bodies, and how might this thought experiment reframe conversations about body normativity in the present day?

The lecture comes out of Tyler Coburn’s interviews with paleoanthropologists, ergonomists, evolutionary biologists, and genetic engineers.
