Abstract
Design fiction recombines the tools of writing and storytelling, particularly as found in science-fiction, with the material crafting of physical objects which don’t exist now, but plausibly could in some version of the near future. Design fiction is used as open-ended explorations of futures, though they can also be employed to better understand a company’s planned future product and how it might exist in the world. Many large organisations already use this approach to learn and iterate even before formal prototyping, wireframing, or writing a single line of code. This talk will give an introductory overview of design fiction, exemplified by projects conducted with public organisations and private companies.
