WEIRD SENSATION FEELS GOOD / Konstig känsla känns bra (ArkDes, 2020; The Design Museum, 2022)

Type “ASMR” into YouTube and you will meet a stream of faces and hands, microphones and materials, and makeshift sets. These videos exist inside the world of the Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response—a static-like feeling of low-grade euphoria or deep calming, triggered by gentle sound, touch and movement. "WEIRD SENSATION FEELS GOOD" explores this emergent world as a physical reaction, a revolutionary internet culture, a technology-driven craft, and a field of design.
