In Other Worlds: Future Forgotten is a group exhibition that features the work of students from the MA Information Experience Design. All the pieces on display were developed in response to a brief with the same name, delivered by tutor Nestor Pestana in September 2024.

Unfulfilled ecological dreams. Undelivered technological promises. Lies. Conspiracy theories. Forgotten histories - futures that failed to materialise. In Other Worlds explores these broad and complex narratives as starting points to imagine (im)possible futures, aiming to question and challenge dominant norms and systems around techno-solutionism, colonialism, climate narratives and surveillance capitalism.

Through methodologies drawn from gaming, divination, future scaping, and worldbuilding, students have translated their visions into a series of installations and experiences. The works manifest in various forms - moving image, physical artefacts and installations - each one a thought experiment that doesn't intend to put forward solutions, but rather to make us think about our present realities - a space for critical reflection and collective imagination.
