Future Making Dialogues: Politics and Practice provides an opportunity for you to deepen and consolidate design thinking and making through a future focused, self directed project.

Guidance will be provided in the process of selecting a contemporary design topic of your interest, defining a research question and using practice led research methodologies to develop the project over the semester, alongside experimental fabrication processes that support the execution of studio work to fulfil project outcomes. You will present a body of work and documentation as an integrated response to the key conceptual, procedural, sociocultural and environmental relationships identified in your topic.

It is recommended that students complete ADAD9211 ‘New Technologies, Traditional Techniques’ and ADAD9212 ’Material Thinking’ or their equivalents before taking this course.
