Main courses
Speculative Design
Prototyping Futures & Challenging Realities
A world-building studio that moves from problem-solving to problem-finding — design fiction, diegetic prototypes and speculative objects that ask what futures we want to avoid or invite. Outcome: the Edge of Tomorrow exhibition.
New Media Studies
The Medium, the Machine, and the Interface
A theoretical survey of new media through three thinkers — Marshall McLuhan's media ecology, Friedrich Kittler's media determinism and Lev Manovich's software epistemology — examining how computational media reshape perception, culture and power.
Design Cybernetics
Feedback, Systems & Creative Intelligence
Cybernetics is the study of feedback and control in systems. This course shows how it can transform design practice — linking systems theory with creative problem-solving so students can build products, services and experiences that respond intelligently to change.
