Haul Earth Ledger: Speculations on Black Friday
#Workshop #SpeculativeDesignWhen: NOV 2020
Project Context: Self-iniated project
With: Hugo Pilate
Role: Freelance Speculative Designer
Involved in: Overall project concept and execution
Output: Project website with workshop output + Article about the project + Virtual space to experience the scenario
What if Black Friday celebrated creative and maker culture instead of consumer culture?
An informal co-design fiction workshop exploring an alternative narrative for Black Friday and consumer culture. You can read more about the project in this article, take a look at the workshop MIRO board and the final ouput in the website haul.earth.
The session was held as an open office hours format during the week of 16-20th of November. The main activity involved participants immersing themselves in the scenario and creating a digital collage by using products and parts that were now obsolete and out of production. This resulted in over 20 creations and proposals from a future where Black Friday does not celebrate consumption but creation! A selection of those were created in 3D using blender and are now on showcased in Mozilla Hubs as part of Mozilla Festival 2021.
