Creative Science – Science Fiction Prototyping for Technology Innovation:
In July of 2011, CSf held it’s second annual international workshop in Nottingham, England. It was run in conjunction with IE’11 (Intelligent Environments Conference) so that participants could engage in larger discussions around current scientific research and innovations in a variety of fields, alongside the presentations designed for Creative Science.
CS’2011 showcased many engaging presentations and discussions around science fiction prototyping and its role in developing future innovations. Writers and scientists shared their own prototypes and research. Presenters and audience members also discussed ways to further the discourse between the creators of SF prototypes and scientists, researchers, and engineers around the globe. The keynote speaker helped set the tone for the entire conference.
