This interdisciplinary, practice-based research project examines how future-oriented socially-engaged art can contribute to our understanding of and intervene in the crisis of political imaginary, transcending the activist and usefulness modes predominant in socially-engaged art today. Through practice and thesis, I will ask: how can future-oriented collective art making reconfigure notions of political imaginary and what agency does it exert in narrating desirable futures? I will devise new methodological tools (inventive devices) in collaboration with speculative designers and social scientists. Using these, I will facilitate the participants' development of ideas for elements of a film about future society. The resulting immersive installation of a film set - without making an actual film - will explore how political desires and future visions can be expressed and narrated collectively in a simultaneously discursive, visual and material way. The project will contribute to socially-engaged art methodology, practice and scholarship, following the recent interrogation of radical imagination and futurology in social sciences.

这个跨学科的，以实践为基础的研究项目探讨了未来导向的社会参与艺术如何有助于我们理解和干预政治想象的危机，超越当今社会参与艺术中占主导地位的活动家和有用模式。通过实践和论文，我将问：面向未来的集体艺术创作如何重构政治想象的概念，它在叙述理想的未来时发挥了什么作用？我将与投机设计师和社会科学家合作设计新的方法工具（发明设备）。利用这些，我将促进参与者对未来社会电影元素的想法的发展。由此产生的沉浸式电影布景装置-而不是制作一部实际的电影-将探索如何以同时话语，视觉和物质的方式表达和叙述政治愿望和未来愿景。该项目将有助于社会参与的艺术方法，实践和奖学金，继激进的想象力和未来学在社会科学最近的审讯。
