Research through design fiction: narrative in real and imaginary abstracts



Practice:
  Write your own "research through design" fiction according to Blythe's proposal.

Final Project Discussion: (Next week, Dec. 29, 2015)
1. Propose your final project (transmedia project) according to the "Near Future Design" process"  (http://www.artisopensource.net/2013/10/28/near-future-design-the-perception-of-a-new-possible-and-a-new-role-for-design/)
2. "Ghost in the Shell" or "Neuromancer" scenarios are mostly welcome; also you can use any other scenario settings.
3. Your slide should include: Story setup, and Problem-space framing.
4.  Your final reports should include: (each group, complete version: Jan 13, 2015)

  • Define topic areas of interest
    • the output of this stage is a visual representation of the research domain, along with its extended documentation;
  • The Future World Map
    • the output of this stage is a visual map, a report and an extensive knowledge base, which can assume different forms, depending on the context and circumstances;
  • The Story Setup
    • its output is under the form of a narrative, expressed in visual and textual terms;
  • The Concept(s)
  • The Story Functions
    • the output of this stage consists of the list of kernel events for each story, as well as a diagrammatic representation of their relations and of the relations running among the different (and alternative) storylines that are being developed;
  • The Event Maps
    • the output of this stage is constituted by the Event Maps diagrams and by their documentation sets;
  • The Story Maps
    • the output of this stage is constituted by the sketches and by their documentation;
  • The Design Fictions
    • Simulacra
      • the objective of this phase is to create a simulacrum, a credible, possibly functional, “prototype from the near future” (a pre-totype), through product design and communication design, working across different media;
    • Transmedia Narratives
      • the output of the Design Fiction phase, thus, is constituted by a set of Transmedia Narratives implementing the simulacrum for the story
