About to send this journal article away and start work on a #chi2026 paper since the #chi2025 conference is coming up.

Equal parts #designfiction and #participatorydesign mixed together around disaster.

So much to do.

*"Diegetic prototypes" and their various "realizations" #designfiction

*Like, why do 4-year-olds have commercially-available "Star Trek Communicators" but 40-year-olds don't

The new job cleaning up all those failed Techbros futures that politicians get caught up in.

Present like a dictionary definition: Futorcist (Combination of Futurist and Exorcist) Exorcising the ghosts and poltergeists of promised futures that were abandoned as technically impossible or because people with power never finished as they had moved on to the Next Big Thing.

WTF. The electric company in Texas doesn't have a map of outages so people have been using the Whataburger App to figure out who lost power.

This is like when Homer was using the Krusty Burger map when they got lost at sea.
The Whataburger app works as a power outage tracker, handy since the electric company doesn't show a map. Still nearly 1.9 million power outages.

Man, going through an #academicsky transcript of a #designfiction experiment with our live streaming, participatory design tool.

I really want to try and deploy it to more than a handful. 100s or 1000s all at once, working on a design in real time.
