Christine Meinders is an emerging technologies designer who uses collaborative design approaches to create AI design tools and develop community-driven, social AI projects, from a cultural perspective. Her practice focuses on: 

  • UX of AI/ML
  • Participatory Design
  • Speculative and Critical Design

She is founder of the community AI research and design group, Feminist.AI, which utilizes participatory approaches to co-create AI projects. 

The general focus of her research is the design and user experience of Artificial Intelligence, with a focus on culture. In addition to design research, a varied experience in hands-on prototyping and workshops also shapes her approach to design inquiries. 

She holds an MFA in Media Design Practices from ArtCenter College of Design and an MA in Clinical Psychology from Pepperdine University.
