Abstract

‘How would you feel about computers telling you how to save energy?’—was just one of many questions we asked our participants engaging with four artworks commissioned for the 'Electric Feels' project. In this paper, we tell our story of this unique art-research collaboration, share our illustrations and reflect on the power of visual methods to galvanise a new type of public conversation related to emotions, energy and digital innovation. By bringing together the literature from design research, STS and human geography, we intend to lay a path towards further interdisciplinary conversations. This commentary paper makes a case for collective energy ‘futuring’—embracing the role of affect, speculation and imagination, while moving away from the deficit model of public engagement in science.

电感:视觉方法在能源 "未来化 "中的作用
如果电脑告诉你如何节约能源,你会作何感想?"--这只是我们向参与 "电子感觉 "项目的四位参与者提出的众多问题之一。在本文中,我们讲述了这一独特的艺术研究合作故事,分享了我们的插图,并反思了视觉方法在激发有关情感、能源和数字创新的新型公共对话方面的力量。通过汇集设计研究、STS 和人文地理学的文献,我们希望为进一步的跨学科对话铺平道路。这篇评论文章为集体能源 "未来化 "提供了一个案例--拥抱情感、猜测和想象力的作用,同时摆脱公众参与科学的赤字模式。
