Science Fiction Design Workshop
ABOUT
“As human beings it can be difficult to predict a future based on the limitations of what we know today. Design speculations can act as a catalyst for collectively redefining our relationship to reality.”
The genre of Science Fiction in literature and media deals with possible realities and the challenges that humankind might face. By applying real-life design methods to these imaginary challenges, we can think beyond our familiar, immediate needs and develop new and boundary-pushing ideas for the future.
In this workshop, participants will be given prompts to invent solutions for potential design problems in the near, mid, or distant future. No design prerequisites are required for this workshop and participants of all levels and backgrounds are welcomed.
Come prepared with a writing utensil and get ready to engage in deep imagination to conjure up ideas about the world to come.
This event is supported by the General Assembly.
