Explore emerging cutting-edge ideas, existing foresight practices, and future scenarios and then articulate original, well-informed future visions. You'll engage in critical inquiry, examining assumptions that underpin contemporary innovation and research agendas to identify preferable future trajectories from a range of perspectives, and you'll be challenged to explore the generative nature of innovation, inspiration and learning in the context of imagined future worlds. This course will expose you to a range of engagement modes, encouraging creative and experimental approaches to expression and communication, and culminating in a public event where audiences interact with student-envisioned futures.
