Description
Playing with Futures proposes play as a mode of speculating.
Based on critical design and speculative design theory, you challenge the current world and envision alternative futures.
You are introduced to the fields of critical design and speculative design creating prototypes that make us reconsider our current world and the futures we want to design for. The course uses design fiction, explores critical play and the craft of world building to create future scenarios. It approaches play as a design process, diving into more unruly modes of creation were imagination and provocation have a key role. The outcome is a tangible mode of reflection that has democratic value.
