"Should there be robots that blush?"

In this episode, Nour, the host and founder of Femmes Designers, is joined by Soomi Park, a London-based designer and artist from Seoul, South Korea. Soomi is a lecturer in the Design department at the Goldsmiths University of London. Her approach to design is playful but socially critical and discusses issues that need more attention in today's society. Her work explores the complex relationship between emerging technologies and human desires and encompasses a wide range of mediums, including interactive installations, speculative objects, film, photography, performance, and wearables.
