SUMMARY:Critical Tech Talk 11: Speculative Imaginaries and Technological\nD
 esign
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:The Critical Media Lab is excited to invite you to register\nfo
 r CRITICAL TECH TALK 11: SPECULATIVE IMAGINARIES AND TECHNOLOGICAL\nDESI
 GN with guest speaker Sherryl Vint\, Professor of Media and\nCultural Stu
 dies at the University of California\, on how speculative\nfiction can he
 lp us cultivate a more inclusive social imagination.\n\nThis is a virtual 
 event taking place on Zoom\, Friday January 24th at\n3:00 PM. Full detail
 s are below. Registration is required using this\nlink\n[https://uwaterlo
 o.ca/arts/events/critical-tech-talk-11-speculative-imaginaries-and]. \n\n
 We look forward to you joining us!\n\nABOUT THE TALK: Speculative fiction
  (sf) is an influential mode that\nshapes how we imagine what technologies
  and futures we find desirable\,\nfeasible\, and valuable. But whose value
 s inform imagined\ntechno-utopian futures? How can we draw on the power of
  sf if we\nunderstand the genre not as a storehouse of technologies we mig
 ht one\nday create\, but instead as a critical engagement with the way tha
 t\ntechnology inevitably shapes the social world in ways that extend far\n
 beyond its intended use? Using the example of the intersection of sf\nwith
  disability studies\, this talk will outline how sf can function as\na mod
 e of enquiry\, a rhetorical tool that can help us guide\ntechnological dev
 elopment toward greater inclusion and equity by\nopening new perspectives 
 on the problems technology seeks to solve.\nFocusing on the specific examp
 le of sf written from the perspective of\npeople with disability\, it will
  show how such fictions can help us\nunderstand how to cultivate a more ca
 pacious social imagination as a\ncrucial element of equitable and inclusiv
 e technological design.\n\nSHERRYL VINT is Professor of Media and Cultura
 l Studies and of\nEnglish at the University of California\, Riverside\, wh
 ere she founded\nthe Speculative Fictions and Cultures of Science program.
  She has\npublished widely on science fiction\, including\, most recently\
 ,\nBiopolitical Futures in Twenty-First Century Speculative Fiction\n(2021
 )\, Science Fiction: The Essential Knowledge (2021)\, and\nProgramming the
  Future: Speculative Television and the End of\nDemocracy (2022\, co-autho
 red with Jonathan Alexander). She was a\nfounding editor of Science Fictio
 n Film and Television and is the\nManaging Editor of Science Fiction Studi
 es and editor of book series\nScience in Popular Culture.
