创造过去与未来:思辨设计与媒介考古学

Inventing Pasts and Futures Speculative Design and Media Archaeology

本文①旨在于思辨设计的语境下思考媒介考古学和想象媒介项目意味着什么。这两个平行领域之间缺失的早期讨论专注于使用“想象过去”这一特殊角度来研究跨越媒介与设计的思辨实践的批判方法。思辨设计和想象媒介研究都感兴趣于如何创造替代世界及时间、社会和技术的表格以替代性的方式定位过去—未来的坐标。本文讨论了不同的艺术与设计项目,交叉运用了媒介和设计理论与实践的两种传统,旨在阐释媒介考古学如何为思辨设计与批判设计中的当代问题作出贡献。

This chapter aims to put imaginary media research and speculative design in conversation;what does it mean to think of media archaeological and imaginary media projects in the context of speculative design?This earlier missing discussing of the two parallel fields sets out to investigate critical methods in speculative practices across media and design with a special angle to imaginary pasts.Both speculative design and imaginary media research are interested in how alternative worlds might be created and how both temporal,social,and technological tabulations situate coordinates of past-future in alternative ways.The chapter addresses different art and design projects,cross-fertilising the two traditions of media and design theory and practice,and aims to elaborate ways how media archaeology could contribute to speculative design and hence contemporary issues in critical design.
