Lyn Nanticha Ocharoenchai’s podcast Who I Met Today recently featured Kye Shimizu, researcher in the MIT Media Lab’s Fluid Interfaces group. Shimizu designs interfaces that explore the boundaries between humans and technology, from “algorithmic couture” to wearable stimulants and shifting identities.
In the episode, he reflects on the breadth of projects at the Media Lab, highlighting how diverse initiatives can be radically different yet equally ambitious. The conversation offers a rare glimpse into the group’s explorations at the cutting edge of human-computer interaction, creativity, and identity.
