JUNK

We will consider economic trade, hierarchal governance, decaying infrastructure, cultural layers, and limited resources as the basis of the construction of the world. We will interrogate the core ecologies to build a knowledge-base that defines the unique rules of this world. We will develop narrative environments that will provoke characters within the world to tell their stories, and connect the dots of their mutual influence.

This World Building Consortium brings together Universities, Academies and and Institutions from four continents to conspire in the evolution of a new world, Planet Junk. Each is a hub that engages with the other within this world, using core methodology, based on a common context, origin and co-developing the rules that drive the world.

The World Building project JUNK asks students to imagine, ideate and develop a distant future and fictional world, that is inhabited by a population surviving on the detritus of their history.
