Future Human Connectivity Devices discusses how human relationships may change when technology increasingly prioritises efficiency, convenience, and automation.
It imagines a future in which remote living is taken to an extreme, isolating individuals within personal bubbles. In this scenario, people live physically close to one another yet remain strangers. The collection presents speculative prototypes—consumer tools designed to reintroduce micro-encounters between neighbours, such as sharing a drink, sending flowers, or borrowing ingredients. These objects facilitate small, deliberate interactions that have otherwise disappeared.
While unnecessary, overcomplicated, and even absurd in today’s context, the tools become functional within a hyper-antisocial future.
