Anne Britt Torkildsby
Om
I slutten av januar 2022, tok jeg med meg skillsa mine og gikk tvers over gata; fra Norsk forskningslaboratorium for universell utforming på Fakultetet for ingeniørvitenskap til Arkitektur og design fakultetet, og er nå del av «Samspill» og "Design for helse" gruppa på Institutt for design, NTNU Gjøvik. Her forsker jeg på og underviser i designutfordringer knyttet til brytningspunktet mellom teknologi, menneske og samfunn – just my cup of tea.
Pågående forskning er bla. tilgjengelighet på kommunale nettsider, kritisk og spekulativ design, frigjørende design, stigmafri design, og universell utforming og inkluderende design generelt.
Ellers er jeg en evig forkjemper for (å skape) produkter, tjenester, omgivelser, osv. som er best mulig for flest mulig, og stiller gjerne opp som fagekspert – enten det er som paneldeltaker eller vitenskapelig komitemedlem på konferanser, som fagfelle for artikkel eller bok manuskript som må vurderes før publikasjon eller som stolt kategorileder for "Unge talenter" på "Innovasjonprisen for inkluderende design", Design og arkitektur Norge (DOGA) (https://doga.no/aktiviteter/dogas-priser/innovasjonsprisen-for-inkluderende-design/jury-2023/).
