Revital Cohen on how technology affects the human body

What Can Your Creativity Do?/Recorded 2009

A close reading, kept within reach.

The short version

Revital Cohen takes design thinking as a lens on the larger question the festival keeps returning to: what design owes to the people and places it works among. The talk moves from specific projects toward a broader argument about practice.

Recorded in United Kingdom in 2009, the conversation is grounded in Revital's own working method — the compromises, the constraints, and the moments where the work taught them something they didn't expect.

The closing turn is characteristic of the archive: less a conclusion than a provocation, handed to the audience to carry into their own disciplines.
