The&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/cumulusassociation.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Cumulus Association<\/a>&nbsp;is a global organization connecting education and research in the fields of art and design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Critical Disability Studies<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The paper contains an overview of the meta-context of the research project, in which Anne Marleen, based on a brief explanation of philosophy of science and design epistemology, indicates how she wants to develop a highly-innovative field of human and technology (Human-Computer Integration) connected with the sophisticated and very specific field of being human: Critical Disability Studies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Fusion<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Anne Marleen: \u2018I started my project in September 2022 and in recent months, I have written several papers to further shape the context of my research project. I discovered that I really like to write. In addition to the expertise from various research areas, my project also focuses on the differences in culture, narratives and language use between these areas, and I look for ways to allow for the emergence of new paradigms for health and well-being. I want to shape this by establishing practices that concern all disciplines at the same time.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2018Gradually I put the body and artistic performative practices more and more central, whereby \u2018the limited body\u2019 based on a disability and \u2018the deviant body\u2019 based on an integration with technology are no longer distinguished from each other. I do this by seeing the body itself as a material and as an expression to design with.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Human-Computer Integration<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Anne Marleen investigates how mutual dependency relationships can arise when humans and technology operate in a symbiotic partnership. In her research, this connection is viewed from a feminine point of view, creating more space for dialogue on sensitive and intimate topics that are quickly overlooked in the field of design - especially when it comes to bodies that deviate from the standard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Anne Marleen Olthof is a PhD candidate in Bodily Integrated Systems at the University of Amsterdam and the University of Antwerp. She works at the Communication and Multimedia Design course at the Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences. She has a lecturer\u2019s PhD grant from the NWO.
