Abstract

To effectively examine the underlying premises of emerging technology has become a major challenge to today’s design ethics. An adequate and prefigurative response to these situations requires a shift towards a fictional aesthetics that calls for co-imagination. Speculative design that sharing a similar ethical mechanism with Jacques Rancière’s aesthetic politics is worthy of attention since the affinity between the literature and emerging designs is becoming manifest. Speculative design embodies its ethical advantage by asking ‘what-if’ questions and providing no answer to keep its prerequisite of equality of intelligence. It devises fictional props and unreal scenarios to distribute the sensible to make audiences notice the possible latent negative social consequences of future technologies. The absurdity in speculative design is what Rancière termed ‘dissensus’, which is the result of fictional aesthetics that aims to inspire reflection and debate on the current state of reality and open the possibility for preferable transformation.

想象伦理:思辨设计中虚构美学的道德

摘要

有效检查新兴技术的基本前提已成为当今设计伦理的主要挑战。对这些情况的充分且具有象征意义的回应需要转向需要共同想象的虚构美学。与雅克朗西埃的美学政治具有相似伦理机制的推测性设计值得关注,因为文学与新兴设计之间的亲和力正在变得明显。投机性设计通过提出“假设”问题而不提供任何答案来保持其智力平等的先决条件,从而体现了其道德优势。它设计了虚构的道具和不真实的场景来分发明智的东西,让观众注意到未来技术可能潜在的负面社会后果。
