under your skin

​        This website is my attempt to create an interactive why to engage with ethnographic findings. Incorporating both fiction and reality I attempted to illustrate a feeling of a world where my interlocutors and the field where leading me. While preserving all the personal data I have encountered throughout my fieldwork I created this pretended online shop to present my findings as well as providing a thought provoking interactive AR (Augmented Reality) application to engage with my discoveries.


        This project aims to contribute to the discussion regarding digital anthropology practice. Joining the notion that digital anthropology is not only the study of the 'digital', rather a new platform to present and interact with ethnographic data and people's experiences.

        Under Your Skin practical project takes its place among a larger scope of MSc Digital Anthropology practical projects at UCL. Illustrating the wide variety of ways in which digital anthropology can be interpreted and deployed to improve our understanding of the relationship between humans and digital technologies.

        In this assignment I took upon myself to research the Biohackers community in London.
 Emphasising on the sociality of their practice, community shaping online (locally and worldwide), body perspective and the why in which they develop this subculture further. Questioning how emerging technologies creates new opportunities to re-frame the embodied experience of being human, challenging the limits and abilities of the human body while questioning what 'being human' might looks like in the future and taking a stand in making that imagination come true.
