Through techniques like hacking and recycling, he breathes new life into discarded technology, challenging conventional notions of functionality and purpose. Gaulon's talk will explore themes of planned obsolescence and nostalgia, inviting audiences to reconsider our relationship with digital devices. From creating symbiotic relationships between appliances to confronting the brutal materiality of technology, Gaulon's work offers a provocative glimpse into our technological legacy and a call for more sustainable practices in the digital age.
