It builds on the assumption, that designers see the world not simply as it is, but rather as it could be. In this perspective, the world is a laboratory to explore the contingency of the existing and the thinking in options. Imaginations of the contra factual are a key source for the creation of alternative political, technological, social, or economic constellations of artefacts, interfaces, signs, actors, and spaces. At the same time, strategies of materialization are pivotal to shift the boundary between the fictional and the real and to finally bring possible new realities into being. The conference therewith addresses the question of how fictions are designed and how the multiplicity of possible new futures is negotiated and realized. Keynote speakers include James Auger, Julian Bleecker, Ruth Durrer, Marc R. Dusseiller, Franz Liebl and Alexandra Midal.Design FictionDesign and Artistic ResearchDesign ResearchArtistic ResearchDesignArtNegotiating Futures - Design Fiction. 6th Swiss Design Network Conference00 - Projekt
