Abstract
In this article we share stories that are still developing out of our design studio.
By designing for the pluriverse we were inspired to create alternative and future imaginaries to counter the humancentric one-world notion. Learning that there was not just one story, but instead the stories were infinite and eternal, we sought to counter the frictions of capitalism, colonialism, and extractivism that have shaped the world we now reside in. We explored this by examining how Indigenous ways of knowing, land connectivity, and decoloniality empower the poetics of experimentation and design. As instructors we share our journey with our students. Three stories by students highlight this journey into the pluriverse.
