More-Than-Human Futures

Reframing design knowledge provotyping for human-non-human ecologies
June 23-29, 2021

2021 International Doctoral Summer School
Organized by the PhD Programme in Design of Politecnico di Milano

The Summer School focuses on the role of experimental knowledge and of speculative/critical practices in design research, also aiming to explore the potentialities of other disciplinary experiences which could be meaningful for the design practice to produce knowledge in forms that are not exclusively textual. The 2021 edition will be a theoretical and pragmatic occasion to “provotype” futures.

The School, designed as an event addressed to academics, researchers, graduate students and experts, is also open to a wider audience with Keynote Speakers and the opening event, the DESIS Philosophy Talk: please find the links to access their lectures on the programme page.
