Abstract

Speculative design has become increasingly widespread as an approach to exploring and articulating futures and the transformative potential of technologies and design interventions. However, speculative design’s dominant narratives tend to promote a narrow conception of what speculation means. The conversation challenged normative narratives and reimagined approaches to speculative design beyond conventional boundaries and from a decolonized perspective. Our aim was to better understand the particularities of different foresight design based research cultures and the speculative design practices that they produce. During the conversation, participants focused on valorizing the situatedness of different speculative design practices around the world and discussed the ways that different operational contexts and locales create speculative design research and how they prefigure diverse futures.
