Thursday Night Workshop

Arvid&Marie – The Universal Declaration of Machines Rights

The Non-human/More-than-human Legal Bureau of Public Requests, Complaints and Defense 2nd Door to the Left invites citizens to come forward and participate in the crafting of a new rights declaration. The Non-human/More-than-human Legal Bureau of Public Requests Complaints and Defense 2nd Door to the Left is a committee set up to work out the practicalities of the relationship between humans and non-human. During the workshop with artist duo Arvid&Marie, citizens learn about the debate of machine rights, its importance and its critics. With a hands on legal and performative approach, participants will draft complaints and defences towards a design for the Universal Declaration of Rights for Machines.

Arvid&Marie

Arvid&Marie is a duo of artists, experience designers and technological adventurers always aiming to discover new ways to stretch our world. Together Arvid Jense (NL, MSc at TU/e) and Marie Caye (FR, BA Design Academy Eindhoven) collaborate on their shared passion for art and technology. Through the use of interactive objects and performative story telling, Arvid&Marie use their collaborative effort to explore post-human theories, focusing their creative attention on practical cybernetics and autonomous machines. They believe that researching how humans express themselves, philosophically and technologically,  can lead to long lasting, positive change.

Thursday Night Workshop

In biweekly workshops, designers from the fields of architecture, design and digital culture share their creative process with participants. With a link to the theme of the current programme Neuhaus, they work critically with the techniques, experiments and questions of experienced makers.
