Dept. for Communicative Things, 2014

Dept. for Communicative Things was a fictional department where visitors formed lobbying groups on behalf of non-human objects. Working with staff at the Canadian Centre for Architecture in 2014, Extrapolation Factory invited visitors to register a group and turn its mission into a bumper sticker. The workshop used the familiar tools of political advocacy to ask what connected objects might communicate, whose interests they could represent and how people might speak on their behalf.
