CRES 190NScience/Fiction and the Possible
Where are the limits of our imaginations around science and technology? How does existing science fiction reimagine the same old kinds of science, technology, and social and political relations between people? How do they wildly reimagine all these categories? This senior seminar analyzes and creates short pieces of speculative fiction that imagine new political configurations capable of giving rise to different forms of science and technology than those currently on offer. Class collates these into an anthology, and culminate the course with a public reading of our work.
Prerequisite(s): CRES 10, CRES 100, and CRES 101; and satisfaction of the Entry Level Writing and Composition requirements. Enrollment is restricted to senior critical race and ethnic studies majors.
