Astronaut Aerobics

The Astronaut Aerobics Institute is a fictional organisation prepping the body for space travel, commissioned by MINI and Dezeen for London’s Design Festival.

2014. Prep The Body For Space – Drawing inspiration from NASA’s 1960’s lower body negative pressure device, the immersive experience places audiences into a science fiction world, becoming protagonists of future. Audiences claimed this experience “put their body back into place”, as if “being hugged by a machine”

“I’m exploring how the body could start changing in order to withstand long periods of time in the rigours of weightlessness – and how this may benefit human health on Earth”.
