Playfool is an art-design unit by Daniel Coppen (UK) and Saki Maruyama (JP). Their practice explores the transforming dynamic between human agency and technology through the medium of play. Their work invites a critical engagement and reimagination of technology, often taking the form of experimental games and interactive installations.
Playfool’s work has been awarded in the S+T+ARTS Prize (2024) and the Dezeen Award (2021), and exhibited internationally at the Science Gallery (Monterrey, 2025), Ars Electronica (Linz, 2024), and the V&A Museum (London, 2023).
