Large-scale information maps relevant to complex problem areas selected by Systemic Design students in OCAD University's SFI MDes program
Policy Horizons Canada commissioned a series of short videos on the subject "What is Foresight?" that have been conceived, authored and co-produced by Strategic Innovation Lab (sLab), together with students from OCAD University's Strategic Foresight & Innovation (SFI) and Graphic Design programs.
Produced in English and French versions, and fully captioned for inclusive accessibility (AODA-compliant), the work is co-directed by sLab's Director of Research, Greg Van Alstyne and SFI graduate, Zan Chandler. The production team is rounded out by OCAD U undergrad research assistants Alex Appugliesi and Jazeen Hollings, who developed original visual sequences and edited.
The video is composed in the form of three short segments approximately 2-1/2 minutes each which may be viewed back to back or separately. View What is Foresight? as a full sequence below (7:23):
