Documenting the future

We spent some time looking at and documenting the future on a project for Smithery and their client the Royal Society. They'd designed and built some time capsules from the future, and we went along to capture them being made.

“Our specific role was to take four broad scenarios for the UK in 2030, as developed by the Emerging Technologies team, and solidify that in some speculative design work which would give the Fellowship prompts to examine each of the four scenarios, work out what was happening in that specific future, and begin to describe the implications these futures would have on science in the UK.”

Find out more at the Smithery website, it's a fascinating project.
