The Extrapolation Factory

Possible futures

18.11.2014, 20:00

The Extrapolation Factory is an imagination-based studio for design-led futures studies, co-founded by Chris Woebken and Elliott P. Montgomery. The studio focuses on developing future scenarios, embodied as artifacts in familiar, present-day contexts. They propose a method for collaboratively envisioning possible futures with diverse participants, experts and non-experts, and doing so in a variety of accessible ways. Previous outcomes crystallized as 99¢ Futures, Futurematic, Junk Mail Machine and Futures Capsules. With this work, the Extrapolation Factory is exploring the value of rapidly imagined, prototyped, deployed and evaluated visions of possible futures on an extended time scale.
