Minyoung Joo

My work is driven by the question of how digital environments become internalized as lived spaces. By examining the transformation of materiality across digital and physical realms, I explore how tactility influences presence and existence beyond the body. Blending research, prototyping, and speculative approaches, I create projects that test alternative forms of digital tactility and expose the limits of current immersive technologies.
