Joseph Popper is an artist, designer and a PhD candidate at the FHNW Academy of Art and Design in Basel, Switzerland. His PhD project focuses on the imagining of outer space and the shaping of outer space imaginaries. His central research concern is the reimagining of outer space - responding to the premise that predominant collective imaginations have become normalised by particular visions of progress. Joseph is particularly interested in the production and narration of outer space, projections of space futures, and the relations of outer space practices with Earthbound conditions. josephpopper.net
