This week, Familiar Stranger Emma conducts her first interview! Emma sat down with Dr Vaike Fors from Halmstad University. Dr Vaike Fors is a professor in design ethnography, focusing on learning in everyday life.
In the past, Vaike has worked with Volvo as part of a number of projects in relation to user experiences with autonomous vehicles and mobility. Her work has expanded into a number of different projects, on city infrastructure as well as public transport.
It was a really interesting conversation and we had such a great time putting this together. Thank you again to Dr Vaike Fors for spending the time.
