Abstract

HCI and design fields must better take into account the volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous world where multiple factors are simultaneously shaping the future. Technologies may have unintended consequences and end up being used in unexpected futures. By being able to holistically anticipate possible futures and by studying them “in action” in prototype-based field studies, HCI and design can increase their importance in shaping futures.
