A 1-day workshop with faculty, staff, and students exploring the potential futures of the fine arts department at Concordia University. The Faculty of Fine Arts Space Planning group asked us to “create a forum for us to imagine a Sci-Fi Faculty of the Future that pushes us to the limit of our ability to predict the unknown while still staying true to our ideals of critical practice, disciplinary depth, cross-medial exchange, social inclusion, and community engagement.”

Starting with previously conducted ethnographic research from student ‘rovers’, future trajectories, and a cluster of ‘what ifs?’, groups generated a range of scenario snapshots and protagonist descriptions illustrated with sketch collages and presentations.
