It presents this process as a vicious new energy source, reflecting on the contradictions within our current approach to consumption and waste.

THE PERSONAL DRIVER

It won’t be long before cars become self-driving, a technology that will disrupt both vehicles and industry. The Personal Driver questions how we might design cars if they no longer have to look like cars any more, and how this transition will forge new interactions between humans and vehicles?
