Immersive Speculative Enactments: Bringing Future Scenarios and Technology to Life Using Virtual Reality
Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems(2022)
Abstract
In this paper we present Immersive Speculative Enactments (ISEs), a novel concept that extends conventional Speculative Enactments to Virtual Reality. Through ISEs, participants are immersed in a speculative world depicted by the designers and can engage with it in its truest envisioned form. We explore this concept via four scenarios with increasing technological uncertainty: a glimpse in the daily life of the parent of a newborn baby; a Mixed Reality experience supporting hybrid classrooms; two wearable devices that present a pet's emotional state and needs; and an enactment on the efect of communication delay across interplanetary distances.
