Annual Showcase
Annual Showcase Prototeams

Plumbing the Machine Learning Pipeline (Prototeam 1)
Future Design PracticesDeveloping machine learning systems requires multidisciplinary teams working across the ML pipeline. In this workshop, participants are invited to act out a fictional ML design scenario and reflect on how values are embedded and lost in industry practices.

Sensing Care Through Design (Prototeam 2)
Future Design PracticesBy collaborating with experts from machine learning, robotics, nursing studies, and healthcare, this prototeam has designed methods to investigate and envision future interactions between sensing technologies, care receivers, and the care network around them, from the standpoint of the affected.

UNCOMMON CROWD (Prototeam 3)
Future Design PracticesThe use of sensing technologies raises complex tensions and issues in the city. In this workshop, participants engage with auto-ethnographic and fictional modes of design inquiry to explore and prototype commons-based, open, and distributed modes of sensing in the wild.
