Week 25 Year 26 is a Studies & Observations issue: short notes, links from outside the studio, projects underway, and material from the Near Future Laboratory archive that deserves to come back into circulation.
This issue shares the unique and early futures booklet written by Janice J. Tait’s Some Ways of Thinking About the Future, the upcoming Futuring 2.0 workshop in Denver, the Geneva Street Map project from the archives, Rotachrome as a color-palette studio, Ken Anderson’s notes on personal tooling, Applied Intelligence Issue 001, Pacific Palisades miniature memory work, and Office Hours No. 312.
The thread running through the issue is the usefulness of ordinary artifacts. A map, a palette, a workshop handout, a miniature model, a newspaper from an AI future, or a personal tool can make a possible world easier to notice, discuss, and work with.
