+At the [[http://www.z33.be/projecten/future-fictions-present|Future Fictions]] exhibition, FoAM and Z33 co-create the Futures Lab, a laboratory for experimental world construction. More about the exhibition in the [[http://www.z33.be/sites/default/files/z33-futurefictions-minicatalogus-nl-en_0.pdf|Mini Catalogue]].
-Futures Lab is a research archive, workshop and reading lounge for exploring possible futures. The visitors can find traces of absent futurists and their investigations scattered throughout this lab: research materials and working notes, a small library and a range of works in progress. An important part of the lab is a video with background information about the unique worlds of Future Fictions: the projects and the people behind them. A programme of futures-related interventions, workshops and conversations makes an important part of the lab, including a new work by the artist Arne Hendriks, a workshop by design collective The Extrapolation Factory and another by the University of Hasselt Department of Architecture.

-FoAM occupies the Futures Lab for the duration of the exhibition, where we invite visitors to explore what it might mean to prototype and rehearse possible futures in the present. While in the lab, FoAM is collecting and sharing the materials from the Futurist Fieldguide, a publication designed as a manual for people interested to try their hand at scenario building, design fiction and other world construction practices. Aside from the ongoing research activities, FoAM offers a selection of their participatory events, especially designed for Future Fictions. They begin by serving an experimental [[food_scenarios|Food Futures]] menu at the opening of the exhibition, hosting a "[[Futures of Doing Nothing]]" workshop and pre-enactment, and welcoming the visitors for a drink and a  conversation during their Aperos in the lab.

+Futures Lab is a research archive, workshop and reading lounge for exploring possible futures. Visitors can find various traces of absent futurists and their investigations scattered throughout: research materials and working notes, a small library and a range of works in progress. A significant part of the lab is a video with background information about the unique worlds of Future Fictions: the projects and the people behind them. Also noteworthy is a programme of futures-related interventions, workshops and conversations taking place in the lab, including a new work by artist Arne Hendriks, a workshop by design collective [[extrapolation_factory_workshop|The Extrapolation Factory]] and another by [[agoras_workshop|Pantopicon]].
