Speculative Design as Thought Experiment

چکیده

Speculative design is a subsidiary field of critical practice. It generally involves developing scenarios based on central object, often prototype. Because it concerned with alternative present and future states, many acknowledge the potential speculative for raising discussion public engagement science, technology, society. In this article, we ask how analogy to thought experiments highlights or problematizes certain aspects design. Building work Anthony Dunne Fiona Raby, answer question through comparative conceptual analysis experimentation as they are understood in their original contexts. We go create theoretical framework applied four cases: Metamorphism; Walden, game; The Substitute; GoatMan. argue that understanding by could help practitioners better achieve aim engagement, enabling more inclusive nuanced about form style

This is a vivid instance of a phenomenon that lies at the heart of all the research I learned about at Monte Verità: the execution of surprisingly successful "cognitive" behavi...

Let us pretend that there was a machine, which was constructed in such a way as to give rise to thinking, sensing, and having perceptions. You could imagine it expan...

Rethinking experiment design as algorithm design

As experimentation in the behavioral and social sciences moves from brick-andmortar laboratories to the web, new opportunities arise in the design of experiments. By taking advantage of the new medium, experimenters can write complex computationally mediated adaptive procedures for gathering data: algorithms. Here, we explore the consequences of adopting an algorithmic approach to experiment de...

Speculative design: crafting the speculation

The article positions the author’s work as speculative design but—like the term design fictions—is open to several interpretations. How is the fictional character of such work conceptualised and produced? What kinds of speculation are involved? The article considers the value of one particular approach and argues that speculative design serves two distinct purposes: first, to enable us to think...
