Aug 2022 - PresentStrategic Design and Management (MS)Spring 2024FUTURES AND SPECULATIVE DESIGN:This studio will investigate the ways in which design can be used as a practice of critique, speculation, and hypothetical proposition. Spring 2023INTEGRATIVE STUDIO 2:A studio requiring the students to work as team doing diverse field research in order to make and then intensively critique prototyped business models, all the while presenting their findings and proposals to colleagues, experts and stakeholders for feedback.Fall 2024INDEPENDENT PROJECT: DESIGN RESEARCH:An opportunity for students to draw on the expertise of faculty to develop a domain of expertise of strategic value to their future careers. Students will develop a rich portrait of the design business innovation opportunities in a designated context: new social/market trends, new technologies/practices, emerging and alternative economies, transitioning political/regulatory frameworks.Strategic Design and Management BBAAug 2017 - May 2019 DESIGN OF BUSINESS: This course introduces system dynamics in the context of sustainable design of the operations of a business. Students apply the insights and methodologies gained in this course by developing operational plans that propose innovative and sustainable alternatives to familiar business practices.INTEGRATIVE RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT: In a semester-long project that spans planning, research, implementation and testing, students will experience the unfolding of the design process, with special attention given to the use of iteration and prototyping as a means to generate knowledge and/or innovative solutions. SENIOR PROJECT 2: CAPSTONEStudents learn and demonstrate an iterative design and development approach to proposed strategies for creative business-inflected intervention. Project design, development, and implementation strategies are expected to actively engage critical stakeholders in a rigorous, thoughtful and professional manner.

The Extrapolation Factory is an imagination-based studio for design-led futures studies, founded by Chris Woebken and Elliott P. Montgomery. The studio develops experimental methods for collaboratively prototyping, experiencing and impacting future scenarios. Central to these methods is the creation of hypothetical future props and their deployment in familiar contexts such as 99¢ stores, science museums, vending machines and city sidewalks. With this work, the studio is exploring the value of rapidly imagined, prototyped, deployed and evaluated visions of possible futures on an extended time scale.The Extrapolation Factory has worked with partners and organizations such as Autodesk Research, UNICEF, TED Active, Museum of Arts and Design, Eyebeam, Storefront for Art and Architecture, Columbia University’s Studio-X NYC, Z33 Hasselt, The Royal College of Art, NYU’s ITP Program, Parsons The New School for Design, SVA’s Products of Design, The North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences, Canadian Centre for Architecture, Ontario College of Art and Design, Forum for the Future and the National Center for Atmospheric Research. The Core77 Design Award granted to The Extrapolation Factory in 2013’s Speculative Design category and the Extrapolation Factory was nominated for the Design Museum’s Designs of the Year award in 2015.

Led by Shannon MatternWe live amidst real-time data flows, with sensors measuring everything from air quality to traffic, with our own cell phones yielding information about our whereabouts and activity levels, with buildings reporting on their own energy consumption and maintenance. This urban "intelligence" ostensibly allows for the optimization of our environments and our selves - for the production of "smart cities" and smart citizens. In this hybrid studio we'll examine how the methods of data science shape our civic values and urban imaginaries, and condition the work of urban design and administration; and we'll assess the consequences - for the material environment, for urban citizenship, for quality of life, etc. - when data and efficiency drive design and development decisions. Taking the nearby Hudson Yards development as our case study, we'll explore not only how "smartness" is operationalized in such new urban developments, but also what other kinds of intelligence have long been present in our cities. To evaluate Hudson Yards's smarts, we'll develop a collection of "urban intelligence test kits" - IQ tests, guidebooks, measurement instruments, field kits, etc. - to evaluate how human and machine logics, intelligences, and values are integrated and negotiated on this urban test-bed. **The course is supported by a generous grant from the Provost's Innovations in Education Fund, which will cover necessary costs for specialized training, design consultation, fabrication, and publication of our results; and our work will be featured in a special "urban interfaces" issue of MIT Press's Leonardo Electronic Almanac.

Dunne & Raby use design as a medium to stimulate discussion and debate amongst designers, industry and the public about the social, cultural and ethical implications of existing and emerging technologies.They are the authors of Hertzian Tales (CRD Research, 1999, MIT Press, 2005) and co-author, with Fiona Raby, of Design Noir (Birkhauser, 2001) and Speculative Everything (MIT Press, 2013). Projects include Technological Dream Series, No 1: Robots (2007), Designs For An Over Populated Planet: Foragers (2010), The United Micro Kingdoms (2013) and The School of Constructed Realities (2015).Their work has been exhibited at MoMA, NYC, the Pompidou Centre, Paris, and the Design Museum in London, and is in the permanent collections of MoMA, the Victoria and Albert Museum, Frac Ile-de-France, Fnac and the MAK as well as several private collections.In 2015 Dunne & Raby received the first MIT Media Lab Award.
