Design fiction is a way of exploring and experimenting with ideas about the future through design. It involves creating tangible objects, services, or scenarios that aren't meant to be predictions but rather provocations or narratives that encourage people to think critically about the potential impacts, uses, and ethical implications of new technologies and innovations. It's like storytelling with design, where the creations serve as conversation starters about possible futures, helping designers, users, and stakeholders explore complex questions and possibilities before they become real.
Design Fiction serves as a creative platform for exploring the consequences of technology, encouraging a more inclusive, ethical and thoughtful approach to designing the future.
