View Upcoming EventsSpeculative Design for Innovation Workshop: Ethical Innovation
Part 3 of a 4 Part Series
Design thinking is a popular tool, however, it often only leads to slight improvements on an existing design. How might we deliberately cultivate practices that stop us from optimizing the past, and instead, help us to envision the future we want to approach? Speculative Design is a toolkit for innovation that considers possible futures for technology, society, and business.
Throughout
this workshop series, participants will learn how to harness the tools
of speculative design for creating true innovation in their field. They
will explore a variety of trends and technologies, learn about different
applications of speculative design, and generate several prototypes of
possible futures.
In this Speculative Design for Innovation Workshop Ethical Innovation,
we will introduce ethical design and postphenomenology in terms of social innovation. Participants will learn how to use speculative design to understand and rethink social structures of work, politics, etc.
You are welcome to attend even if you missed the previous workshops in this series!
