There is a trend for handcrafting bespoke prostheses that embody their wearers' aesthetic tastes and identities. We explore how this might be extended by enabling users to co-design with algorithms. We report a design-led exploration (Figure 1) in wh... Read More about Beyond Skin Deep: Generative Co-Design for Aesthetic Prosthetics.
