Radical Ocean Futures
A Science Fiction Prototyping approach to imagining our future oceans.
Futures research | Strategy
Imaginaries, Imaginations & Images of the Future
Association Professional Futurists Award category: works that employ design-based, multi-sensorial, experiential and/or play-driven, literary, gaming, musical and other artistic expressions to approach explorations of futures thinking.
This winning project by Andrew Merrie is founded on the belief that sometimes science fiction might succeed where scientific papers fall short. It blends art and science and merges scientific fact with creative speculation. The heart of the project is four short 'Radical Ocean Futures.' These are scientifically grounded narratives of potential future oceans. Each narrative is supported by both a visual and a musical interpretation to allow multiple entry points and stimulate the imagination. The purpose of this project is to explore tools that can help us to think creatively and imaginatively about our future oceans and assess how unexpected changes, along with human responses to those changes, may play out in a complex world that is, at its heart, surprising.
