Markéta Dolejšová
Postdoctoral Researcher
Person profile
I am a design researcher addressing issues in food systems and socio-ecological sustainability. My practice-based research uses methods of experimental design co-creation and takes the form of workshops, performative interventions and other participatory events that support engagement of diverse stakeholders in and beyond food sectors. In my work, food serves as a primary subject, a culturally diverse and sensory-rich design material, and a starting point for critical thinking. At Aalto, I'm a postdoctoral research fellow working on the CreaTures project (Creative Practices for Transformational Futures) and a member of the ENCORE research group. I have co-founder several food and design research collectives, including Feeding Food Futures, ALTTAB, HotKarot, and Fermentation GutHub. I am always interested in collaborating with designers, researchers, artists, and broadly any practitioners keen on experimenting with food and sustainable futures. I publish my work regularly—for a full list see my Google Scholar. More at materie.me.
Person profile
I am a design researcher with a background in HCI and Food Studies. My research reflects human-food practices as major drivers of climate change and investigates the role of creative design practices in supporting socially and ecologically sustainable futures. In my work, food functions as a widely relatable, aesthetically and sensory-rich design material and a starting point for critical hands-on thinking, making, and co-creative action. At Aalto, I am a postdoctoral research fellow at the CreaTures project (Creative Practices for Transformational Futures) and a member of ENCORE and INUSE research groups. I have co-founder several art and design research collectives, including Feeding Food Futures, ALTTAB, HotKarot, and Fermentation GutHub. I am always interested in collaborating with designers, researchers, artists, and broadly anyone interested in [food] sustainability issues and experiments. More at materie.me.
Background
Before joining Aalto, I was a postdoctoral researcher at Jan Evangelista Purkyne University and a research fellow at Charles University (CZ). In 2018, I completed my doctorate in Interactive Media Design at the National University of Singapore, with a dissertation project Edible Speculations: Designing for Human-Food Interaction.
