Malé Luján Escalante & Luke Moffat, speakers at the Response-ability summit 2021: Ethics through Design

Published on: 22nd April, 2021

In light of the upcoming Response-ability Summit this May 20th-21st , we are excited to be talking to two of its amazing speakers – Malé and Luke – and find out what will they be bringing to the conference space and what expectations do they share. We discuss how to use creative ways to form a space of exchange and how to exercise ethics. What is the end of me and the beginning of someone else? We also cover ethics for more-than-humans - if nature can produce technologies, then why would it not have its own ethics too? Through the isITethical? platform, they have formulated an Ethics through Design (EtD) approach, which uses Design Research and playful Art Thinking methods to support Knowledge Exchange and ethical reflections for responsible innovation. Malé and Luke give us a sneak preview of the ritual design workshop Dancing with the Trouble of AI and invite participants to come for a dose of hope instead of worry.
