Abstract

Through a critical design approach, I suggest new perspectives on social drones, particularly companion drones. Supported by philosophies such as slow technology, I propose the design of anti-solutionist ritual drones and the study of their impact on the lives of users, particularly in domestic contexts. I intend to fill some of the methodological gaps identified, such as longitudinal studies in drone user experience through ethnography and auto-ethnography. I propose a "Research through Design" process of custom domestic probes for children and their families.
