05. Speculations...
Speculations and other tendencies towards future realities. A design narrative. This project explores speculative design as a way to question and reimagine possible futures. It examines how technology reshapes human experience, blurring the boundaries between body, mind, and environment. Through design narratives and experimental artifacts, it reflects on ecological ethics and non-anthropocentric perspectives, proposing alternative modes of interaction and awareness.
This research explores the evolving relationship between humans and technology, focusing on how technological advancements blur the lines between creator and creation, mind and body. It examines the impact of human activity on design, emphasizing the need for approaches that incorporate environmental ethics in design practices.
Through speculative design methodologies, the study investigates alternative futures and narratives, challenging traditional design paradigms. The theoretical research culminates in the presentation of a personal concept, the Sensory Stimulator, which enhances sensory perception and emotional regulation. This device serves as a tool for reimagining human interaction with the environment and self, proposing new forms of agency and awareness.
