Near Future Design: Territory, Consciousness and performance of the Futures
On October 14th, in occasion of the Data Academy #SCE2015 in Bologna, Italy, Nefula will held a session on Near Future Design, open data and territory design.
The Near Future Design aim is to transform the perception of possibility, in order to foster better understandings of desirable and preferable futures, enabling the foundations of their development.
All of this is valid also for the linked dynamics to territory design. The understanding of relational systems which animate the territory (also online) is essential today in order to create visions, meaning, futures, consciousness. The mapping of these datas is able to create new, hidden, wasted opportunities or to better understand those ones followed until now.
Your takeaways:
– to learn the Near Future Design Methodology and its tools;
– to learn how to turn the vision of the future into a scenario/pre-totype;
– to equip the participants with the essential tools in order to create new scenarios about the concept of Territory;
– introduce to the P2P ethnography as an observation tool for relational systems.
