Future Speculation
looking back from even further in the future... Thousands of decades and hundreds of thousands of participants in integrating with the Immunity Chip later, Keerotera’s humanoid population became very much so less human. Due to the technology of the chips system and the data it collected from its user being central to finding the most efficient survival rate, humanoids started live evolving into many different styles of creatures. Previously explored as a solution to the lack

Exhibit Catalog
The Theme This collection is an exploration and documentation of the two dominant environments that exist within this adjacent world: the surface dwellers and the underground elites. These two factions diverge in their philosophical beliefs, forged by a history of silence and distrust that has continued to fuel this rivalry for many years. In an attempt to bring these two societies together, this exhibit examines the interaction between undesirable, spiritual materials, and p

Collective World Building
Part 1: Individual How does your technology convey a way of being in the world? (Ontology) Being Healthy, Being Together, Being Celebratory How does your technology convey a way of knowing the world?

One example is a transfer to a photosynthetic system, changing things even down to a cellular

Unboxing the Spiritual Technology
Critical Reflection In designing a speculative spiritual technology, I most wanted to ensure the plausibility that the fiction could occur realistically as Anthony Dunne and Fiona Raby explain it in Speculative Everything: Design, Fiction, and Social Dreaming. This made the most sense in the context of experiencing other Sci-Fi and thinking “Yeah, that could happen!” The point is to explore alternative cultural practices or shifts, rather than trying to predict the future.

Unboxing the Body
The Unboxing of an Undesirable Defining UNDESIRABLE: not wanted because harmful, objectionable, or unpleasant. When considering what objects are undesirable, I hoped to consider it from a large-scale opinion rather than a personal qualm I have with liking a thing. It was hardly the object itself, but more so the effects of the object: in this instance a single use plastic from a large corporation. In using the object for its surface level intent, I more or less felt joy, it w

Speculative Design Workshop Outcomes
Original 3D Object Original Thoughts & Conceptions Speculative Fiction & Affordance Checklist In a land not unlike our own, the humanoid populations were rapidly shrinking due to the diminishing of their natural resources – they had altered their planet’s atmosphere until it was unsuitable for their own metabolic processes. The planet itself was beyond reparations, reciprocating the treatment it received on those who dare to still inhabit it. Where else would they go? Rather
