About
Linas Kristupas Gabrielaitis is a rising voice in human-computer interaction (HCI), whose work critically reimagines design’s relationship with the more-than-human world. His research centers on practice-based, posthumanist design, challenging the field’s entrenched human-centeredness. Gabrielaitis’s most cited work, “Designing Our Way Through Abstractions: Calling for More Practice-based More-than-Human Design Research” (2024, 8 citations), makes a pivotal contribution by arguing that HCI’s more-than-human turn must move beyond theory into tangible, situated design practices. He advocates for methods that attend to nonhuman actors—animals, plants, ecosystems—not as metaphors but as co-participants in design processes. This call for methodological innovation is already shaping conversations in HCI, positioning him as a key thinker in the field’s ethical and ecological expansion. Though early in his career, Gabrielaitis’s work signals a profound shift: from designing for humans alone to designing with and for a multispecies world. His scholarship invites researchers and students alike to rethink abstraction, materiality, and responsibility, making him a compelling figure for anyone interested in the future of socially and ecologically engaged design.
