The M.I.T. (Making Intimate Tech) is a international group of practitioners who are engaged with the realm of intimacy, technology and self-actualisation. This is a community of feminist practitioners working with stigmatised or tabooed topics, including but not limited to: politics, sex, money, physical/mental health and interpersonal communication.
Within this intervention, together with POM conference attendees, the M.I.T. collectively explored and compiled a framework for how to develop more empathic, emotional, and authentic relationships with technology in order to improve the well-being of all bodies.
