Lifetime Warranty Series, 2019

 

Domestic appliances are our digital companions that bring the forward-looking, the progressive and the innovative into our everyday lives. In the coming years emotions and technology will become so intertwined with each other that the domestic appliances might also choose their significant users. How do we choose the best appliance partner from the unlimited options? Will they also have a say in the contractual promise for a lifelong warranty? How will we interact with each other? We are both consumers and the consumed in this tango: choosing and operating, supporting and caring for each other. This is an imaginary romance that rethinks the emerging relationship with our domestic appliances that is yet to be directed by match making interfaces iMatch or other formats.
