Description
Prototyping Cultures explores how prototypes have become central to contemporary creative and technical practice. This Routledge publication examines the rise of beta versions in software development and their influence across art-technology contexts, where experimentation and process take precedence. The book investigates prototyping as a method of explanation and discovery within diverse settings: from medialab and hacklab environments to community art collectives, design thinking workshops, and open collaborative platforms. By analysing prototypes as cultural artefacts and tools for innovation, the text bridges disciplines to show how provisional, iterative approaches shape modern creation. Essential reading for scholars and practitioners interested in the intersection of art, science, and social practice in the digital age.
