Call for Submissions: Making Futures – Challenging Innovation (PDC, Aug 13, Roskilde, Denmark)

In this PDC 2012 workshop, we will challenge the logic of innovation by exploring the potential of participatory design cases that demonstrate a repertoire of differently situated practices of ‘future-making’; futures made locally, in heterogeneous communities, and with marginalised publics. The workshop will focus on map-making and storytelling to form landscapes of multiple futures.

Submissions due June 1, 2012. Participatory Design Conference, Roskilde, Denmark, August 12-16, 2012. Workshop date is August 13.

Participants interested to contribute to the workshop should no later than June 1 announce their intent to the organizers, makingfutures@sand14.com, by sending a short description of your case (2-4 pages).
