Abstract

Recent studies have articulated that DIY and the maker culture enrich practice-led HCI communities. Drawing on the specialties, intrinsical playfulness, and tangibility of the maker culture, we took a participatory and design fiction approach to technology imagination with a local maker community. We made a Speculative Kit composed of four series of catalogs and props of fictional products to embody the knowledge produced by an IoT research center. The tool kit will be used in situated making activities for technology practitioners to create alternatives for emerging technologies.
