Beschreibungen

The New Normal think-tank student, activist, and philosopher Joy Zhu reinterprets the concept of affordance in terms of the Chinese concept of yuanfen, which contains critical moments that turn two mutual but mismatched needs into one that is matching, creating an immanent, productive relation of cooperative subsistence. Based on this interpretation, Joy reveals a new concept of efficiency, different from the naturalistic one, demonstrating it through the preservation of outdated technologies in Siberia.
Joy Zhu is a Ph.D. candidate at UCLA Architecture and Urban Design. Previously, she worked as a curatorial assistant at Tai Kwun Contemporary. She is interested in the philosophies of Gilbert Simondon and Mou Zongsan, and counter-hegemonic ideas of technology. Joy obtained her B.A. from Middlebury College, majoring in Comparative Literature.
