Science Fiction Prototyping
Science Fiction Prototyping is a methodology that enables us to develop future scenarios. The emphasis is not on creating a ‘true’ future, but on being explicit about our assumptions for the future.
Having done this it is then possible to develop designs and imagine how they perform in the SFP.
