Namrata is a researcher who investigates human-technology questions - from the profound to the mundane. Society and Culture are where technologies are made and used and are fundamental to their construction in Digital Rituals in Performance. Ethics is not an afterthought but a necessary associate in the design of emerging technologies in Mock Trials as a method for Ethical Design, striving for new futures rooted firmly in the present and asking the question "Why do we speculate, anyway?". The future is already here and it is a dystopia of ubiquitous surveillance in Trusting the IoT. But don't be disheartened because We can Do Something About it; like by designing Practical Utopias or by creating Thought Experiments or by Thinking like Things that are not us or by finding new ways of designing technology that Philosophise through Practice.
