Tigris Li – Empathetic Hardware ✨🔧

26.11.2025 - 05.30pm - Online Talk

An inspiring online talk that explores how technology can move beyond pure functionality and become a medium for connection, emotion, and expression.

Tigris Li is an Artist and Creative Technologist reimagining technology as a catalyst for emotional human connection. Co-founder of Lychee, a consumer electronics company reshaping DJing and cultural infrastructure, she also creates installations, electronic hardware, and sensory experiences that evoke curiosity, co-creation, and play. Her work includes collaborations with Converse, Arduino, and Visa x Olympics, with talks at Google, Dazed, Tate Britain, and more.

In this talk Tigris will explore how tangible design can transform technology into tactile, emotional, and expressive mediums for empathy and connection, rather than consumption.
