<h3>About Futurish </h3>Gratefully inspired by Near Future Laboratory’s DF-DBCPC 0-7 and Situation Lab’s The Thing From The Future, futurish cards is a generative card deck developed by Silvio Cioni and Angelica Fontana to enhance scenario generation in Speculative Design workshops. The deck can be used for envisioning both scenarios &amp; artefacts from the future, and it can be easily integrated with different techniques from Design Fiction (e.g. diegetic prototypes) to Futures Thinking (e.g. worldbuilding, storymaking and scenario matrix).Find out more on: https://futurish.cards/
