O autorze

Akari Nakai Kidd is an academic and scholar in architectural design and architectural theory and criticism at Deakin University, Australia. Her work is interdisciplinary and crosses the fields of architecture, critical theory, and philosophy. Her current research explores the in-betweens of architectural practice, specifically the creative processes of design through the lens of affect theory. She seeks to use affect as a theoretical tool to interrogate the stability of objects, the smooth temporality of practice, and its often under-conceptualised post- or non-human dimensions.
