El Idrissi's work explores speculative futures at the intersection of political science, peace and conflict studies, and infrastructure development. By creating intricate models and simulations, the work challenges conventional understandings of governance and societal structures. El Idrissi draws inspiration from the complex systems found in both nature and gaming culture, using these seemingly disparate fields to inform alternative models for resource management and conflict resolution. The designer's projects are not intended as predictions, but rather as provocative thought experiments, encouraging audiences to critically assess their assumptions about the present and to consider the myriad possibilities of the future. These thought experiments utilize the inherent qualities found in nature and the immersive capacity of games to achieve a sense of reality that provokes a deeper reflection. El Idrissi hopes to destabilize preconceived notions, fostering a spirit of open inquiry and questioning. The ultimate objective is to expand the boundaries of what is considered plausible, sparking dialogue about alternative pathways towards more just and equitable tomorrows. The projects aim to generate discussions that are often not present, by creating representations of future possibilities that seem probable.
