Fields of study progress not by understanding more about what already exists, although that is a useful step, but by making guesses about possible better futures. While traditionally associated primarily with industrial design, and more recently with software development, prototyping is now used as an important tool in areas ranging from materials engineering to landscape architecture to the digital humanities. The guesses consist of small forays into those futures, using strategies that are variously called learning through making, research through design, or more simply: prototyping.
This book collects current theories and methods of prototyping across a dozen disciplines and illustrates them through case studies of actual projects, whether in industry or the classroom.Prototyping Across the Disciplines provides context, a theoretical framework, and a set of
