Archipelago: Speculative Futures

by Faebian Ceruleo, Ram Devineni (Editor), Connie Melanconnie

Speculative Futures (Spanish and English) is an augmented reality illustrated book imagining what the evolution of animals and the environment will be in the future resulting from climate change. What are the dramatic changes we are doing to our climate, and how will it affect the evolutionary changes of the planet? This project is inspired by the ground breaking speculative evolution book, “After Man” by Dougal Dixon. Like Dixon’s work, we are using real biological principles and are exploring real life processes, such as evolution and climate change, through the use of fictional results. By extrapolating past trends into the future, we can predict the most likely scenarios of how certain organisms and lineages could respond to ecological changes. The team spent time on the Galapagos Island and Iceland researching and designing the book.
