Lundqvist's work explores the potential futures of communication technologies, examining how they might reshape not only human interaction but also the very fabric of language itself. Driven by a strong belief in futures literacy, the designer utilizes scenario-building techniques, drawing on insights from robotics, machine learning, and linguistic theory, to dissect and challenge conventional assumptions about progress. The remote location is not a limitation, but rather a lens, offering geographical distance to heighten cognitive awareness of global interconnectedness paradoxes. The designer’s speculative proposals grapple with the tension between technological advancement and the potential for unforeseen social and linguistic consequences, prompting viewers to question their own ingrained expectations about the future. Lundqvist’s goal is not to predict, but to provoke — to create conceptual spaces where viewers can critically evaluate alternative trajectories and their underlying values. The work is rooted in the belief that the most effective form of designing for preferred futures is to reveal the hidden assumptions and implicit biases embedded in our dominant visions of 'progress.' The process is fundamentally analytical, involving the creation of detailed simulations and conceptual models, but the outcome is inherently visceral – a sense of unease coupled with a heightened awareness of the possibilities, both positive and negative, that lie ahead.
