WHAT IF…

FUTURE FORM, FUTURE FUNCTION?

WHAT IF…insects could diagnose illness? WHAT IF…clouds were modified to snow ice cream? WHAT IF… we lived in a society where our every thought was public? These are just some of the questions asked in the current exhibition at Science Gallery which probes the space between reality and the impossible and where designers meet scientists to explore the future.

WHAT IF… has been curated by leading London based design duo Anthony Dunne and Fiona Raby and Science Gallery director Michael John Gorman and features a range of works by designers who have explored everything from using animals as life support machines, through to what happens in a society where machines can read your every emotion.
