EPIC2021 Anticipation
EPIC2021, the premier conference on ethnography in business is scheduled and it looks stimulating. The theme focuses on futures and possibilities for products, thinking, knowing, and working.
Conference Theme
There are no future facts. Yet we humans constantly create potential futures through art, imagination, research, storytelling, planning, and design. The EPIC2021 theme Anticipation explores how our work documents, anticipates, and crafts futures of its own. Our daily practices of research, design, and strategy create landscapes of possibility. How do we open new paths—and obscure others—as we work to understand people, interpret wants and needs, propel change, navigate risk, assign cause, predict outcomes, and assess consequence?
