Extract Blade Violates Secure Shot: Exquisite Corpse as a Speculative Design Method

Year: 2026
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: What if sound waves could protect your privacy and vaccines could protect your biometric data? What if you could watermark your voice and trees could store data? These are not questions, but ideas emerging from playful speculative design workshops. By drawing on the surrealist exquisite corpse technique, randomly combined sentences prompted exploratory discussions in which concepts from various technological fields were imaginatively linked to cybersecurity and privacy for visually impaired and blind elderly. The results showed that, exquisite corpse holds methodological potential, as the unpredictable nature of the technique can stimulate unconventional thinking, which can be applied in various domains.
