Biography

Bolor Amgalan is an interaction designer/researcher and a fashion design technologist using craft materiality to design culturally sensitive transition design interventions to achieve a more equitable future of work for underpaid craftspeople and garment factory workers, slow production and meaningful consumption. Her research spans programmable matter, virtual materiality, creativity support tools and craft preservation in VR. Born and raised in Mongolia, Bolor trained as a zero-waste fashion designer, and later developed her practice further at Central Saint Martins using speculative design narratives, and yet further at Parsons using computation. She programs hybrid materials that belong to both the digital and analog realms and occupy the space at the intersection of craft values, tangible interface design and embodied interaction.
