Biography

Prof. Christopher Frauenberger is professor for Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) at the University of Salzburg. He designs interactive digital technology for and with people who are vulnerable or marginalised in mainstream innovation landscapes (e.g. autistic children, the elderly). He is a leading, international expert on Participatory Design and uses design as his main mode of scientific inquiry. Theoretically, he builds on new philosophical perspectives to conceptualise our increasingly entangled relationships with technology, unearthing the ethical, moral, epistemological an ontological implications for designing technological futures.
