Journeys of UncertaintyAIâÇÖs Role in Crafting Eco-Historical NarrativesA Flexible Online Methodology for Speculative Storytelling and Participatory FuturesEdited by Eveline Wandl-VogtAuthors: Eveline Wandl-Vogt, Max Haarich, Danielle SanchesDesign: Chiara PoianiáArtworks: Max HaarichThis visionary workbook introduces a transdisciplinary, online-first methodology for using AI in crafting speculative, eco-historical narratives. Designed through the award-winning PROVIDEDH project, it offers a rich and flexible toolkit for workshop leaders, educators, citizen scientists, and creative practitioners working at the intersections of technology, sustainability, and cultural imagination.More than just a guide, Journeys of Uncertainty is a call to reimagine history and co-create regenerative futures. Rooted in participatory futuring, art-driven innovation, and open science principles, the methodology enables learners to engage with open-source AI tools, visualize alternative pasts and futures, and develop critical awareness of algorithmic uncertainty.While sustainable mobility serves as one illustrative case, this method is adaptable to a wide range of themes-from climate fiction and food systems to heritage, biodiversity, and digital ethics. The workbook supports both online and hybrid workshop formats and requires no prior AI knowledge-only curiosity, creativity, and a commitment to transformation.Drawing on editor Eveline Wandl-VogtâÇÖs globally recognized work with Ars Electronica, Harvard University, and the Austrian Academy of Sciences, this guide empowers facilitators and communities to collaboratively design inclusive, just, and eco-conscious futures.What YouâÇÖll LearnHow to run interdisciplinary AI workshops using speculative storytelling methodsHow to use algorithmic uncertainty as a generative and reflective learning toolHow to apply art-driven and ecosystem-centered design to digital educationHow to foster collective imagination and inclusive innovation in virtual settingsIdeal ForEducators and trainers in digital humanities, futures literacy, and STEAMCultural and citizen science practitioners designing co-creative learning spacesAI ethics facilitators and regenerative design innovatorsArtists, technologists, and storytellers working on post-anthropocentric themesAvailable EditionsDigital Workshop Toolkit - Portable and interactive eBook for self-paced or facilitated learningWorkshop FacilitatorâÇÖs Guide - Softcover edition for practical classroom, lab, and field useStudio Edition: AI & Futures Practice - Premium hardcover for institutional collections, includes case study and documentation extrasBring This Workbook to Life - Book a WorkshopThis is more than a book.
