Computing for the 22nd Century: More-than-human to see the environmental footprints of profound technologies
Paper i proceeding, 2024

Over the past 40 years, human-centered design has driven technological
development, seamlessly integrating technologies into
our everyday lives. However, this “disappearing act” has led to
these technologies’ environmental footprints becoming invisible.
Building on three illustrative examples, we contribute to the current
development of the more-than-human design approach by suggesting
1) this approach is a useful analytical lens to foreground the
environmental footprint of today’s emerging profound technologies
starting to “disappear”, and 2) instead of upholding a dichotomy
between human vs. more-than-human, we can use the more-thanhuman
approach to unify these two in efforts to establish a vision
for the 22nd century that explores holistic approaches for morethan-
human worlds.
