Bionic Future

Exploring human augmentation

Details

Bionic Future is a collection of works over the years exploring the possibilities of a future where we can upgrade our bodies with cybernetic organs and limbs. Some of this work was part of a museum exhibition, specifically the renders, while other parts were developed for my product design master’s final project, such as the augmented arm box prototype.


I have always been fascinated by the evolution of humans and how we might merge with technology. The idea of enhancing our physical capabilities and extending our senses through cybernetic upgrades is not just a sci-fi dream, but a potential reality. This project allowed me to delve into these possibilities, exploring how technology could seamlessly integrate with our biology to create a new kind of human experience.


From envisioning how cybernetic limbs could improve our daily lives to designing prototypes that demonstrate these concepts, Bionic Future represents my curiosity and commitment to pushing the boundaries of human potential.

This gif/video went viral after my friend posted it on Twitter, garnering a total of 2.8 million views across LinkedIn and Twitter. My goal with this project was to create something thought-provoking that would get people discussing the possibilities of transhumanism, especially those who were not familiar with the concept. It was incredibly satisfying to see so many people engaging in this conversation on Twitter.


I used Leap Motion for hand tracking back in the day, and it was a blast to later meet and work with folks from Leap Motion who had seen the project, including David Holtz, one of the founders and now the founder of MidJourney! It’s a small world in tech, after all.


Through this project, I discovered that I didn’t want to specialize my skillset too much. I found it immensely satisfying to bring together various skills to create something unique, applying what I had learned in computer arts with the product design and design thinking from my master’s in product design.

After I graduated and my viral videos garnered some attention, I landed a few dream freelance projects. One of these was an exciting opportunity to take my prototype further for the Science Museum of Minnesota for an exhibition. I designed more arms, explored new ideas, and pushed the prototype further. Sadly, the project was canceled due to COVID-19, but it was a dream come true to get paid for designing sci-fi organs and bionic limbs.
