It's what we see, how we feel it and the in-between-the-line-experience, I guess.

A mix of now and something we haven't had before. But often I guess the future is actually what we have now but in a new form/shape.

To me it's also the beauty of looking at things that are already there with a new pair of glasses. They might make you see the thing as something completely different or just the same thing with a new twist. Could be a new use of the thing or even a new purpose - kind of redeveloping.

Based on the chapter from Speculative Everything, and the video Design is Speculative, write a reflective paragraph on each subject: speculation, future, design.

It is interesting how sci-fi, something I(/we?) mostly view as a form of entertainment as either film, books or any other media, can be used for real life idea generation and how it relates to designing.

Its also interesting how hard and frequently we try to predict the future, when we also know how it just as frequently isn't true. However sometimes it does come true, and that small chance of success is what drives all the attempts that we also see fail, since the reward of success far outways the multiple failures.

An interesting point about design is how it also relates to speculating the future, since you are designing for the future. However, when it comes to design, and the future cones™ the range of future scenarios are probably limited to the inner cones of creating something realistic, because how can you create something that isn't possible with our current technology?

Future:

Use possible futures as tools to better understand the present

Discuss the kind of future people want (and do not want)

Scenarios: WHAT-IF questions → open up spaces of debate and discussion

Design is not just problem solving it can also be a way to think about and ilustrate critiques of society and imaginations of the future.

It is about investigating what design can do beyond solving problems...

Being speculative is a way to open up new perspectives on wicked problems (a social or cultural problem that is difficult or merely impossible to solve?), it encourage you to discuss and debate in new spaces using your free imagination (thinking outside what we already know)

The future is the canvas of speculative design. When we talk about future design, we talk about designs that possibly could exist. It is about creating a life that we want to live in and making choices that have an impact.

Speculation is the question about "what if?".
thinking if scenarios that are not a thing but maybe could be.
It is based on our imagination and creativity.

To me the core of speculation in the context of design and technology, is the ambition of setting thinking free from commercial and political interests, and other societal discourses. This is done by making humanity and consciousness the driving force behind creative endeavors. By doing this we will achieve a different vison of the future, that is more balanced and beneficial to humanity.

Design is the expression of human visions for the present and the future, based on imagination and creativity.

# data[].attributes.body
The future is various imagined scenarios, that are produced through a mix of creative thoughts and past experiences. The future scenarios for technology and design can be organized on scale depending on what is possible, plausible and probable. When approaching future from a speculative perspective one will determine what is a preferable future within this scale.
