Neuromancer-Entanglement Project proposal:
1. find brands, products, devices, et al. in Neuromancer
2. find everyday objects (or create new models) and make speculative entanglement with items in 1.
3. Cite texts,  micro-scenarios, in Neuromancer
4. Plan time-space narratives for exhibition

Due date: June 10th, 2020

week 12. Neuromancer Photo+Text workshop

workshop : neuromancer texts cards + personal photos

Project 2. Entanglement of Sci-fi & everyday
1. work out at least 3 photos with meaningful Neuromancer texts
2. For each photo+text, complete a short story telling (for example, narratives from the future, the poetics of design fiction)
3. upload 3 short fictions to Google drive (deadline: 5/27, 2020)

week 11. experiential speculation & narrative from future

Experience sharing: Daily photos with Neuromancer texts

CHI 2039: speculative research visions

  25年前的 CHI 研究

Research through design fiction: narrative in real and imaginary abstracts

Running an HCI experiment in multiple parallel universes

https://www.facebook.com/heritage1994/videos/vb.1547487345494442/1656391757937333/?type=2&theater

Questions:
1. What is the possible narrative scheme? Illustrate it with diagram (分組討論)
2. What are the anchors? objects, human, place, legend, or ritual?

Practice: a letter from future

Compose a letter from future where the anchor event has just happened.
This letter should sensitize the relationship between future and the present, inspire how to conduct a design research, and fictionize your roles and worlds.

week 10. material speculation

1. Students practice transforming everyday objects into speculative artifacts in Neuromancer
  (1) identify the possible object in the Neuromancer fiction
  (2) apply one quality of speculative aesthetics to the object (remove details, reduce colors, simplify shapes, blur functions, ...) to get close to the fictional artifacts.
  (3) sketch the fictional artifact
  (4) name it and cite the texts in the book

William Gibson's Neuromancer: Concept Art

2. Paper reading: Material Speculation (AA'15)
3. Rung-Huei Liang. 2013. Pragmatist Poetics in Interaction Design. (IASDR 2013)


"Bachelard sets material imagination apart from formal imagination [2]. Rather than being conceived intellectually in formal imagination, material imagination is an idea that comes from contact with nature material, such as water and fire." p. 2524

 4.  Morse Things: A Design Inquiry into the Gap Between Things and Us

Questions:

  1. What are counterfactual artifacts?

       (containing an 'if'- clause that is contrary to fact)

      nonfunctional prototypes, storytelling props, fictional objects

  2. What is Possible World Theory?
  3. What is pragmatist speculation?
  4. What is formal speculation v.s. material speculation?

This weekend:
  upload at least 5 everyday photos (in FB, IG, Flickr,...) to the google drive for workshop preparation.
Deadline: 2020, 5, 10. 23:59
