 In the context of Future Fabulators M-ITI conceived and designed a locally inspired context-aware transmedia story. Drawing inspiration from a creative writing workshop and future scenario session, they developed a fictional story around two central themes: the past-present-future impact of human settlement on a particular ecosystem, in this case the centuries-old ‘living lab’ and UNESCO-protected wilderness of Madeira; and the healing properties of local flora as explored in folk remedies. Laurisilva Futures workshop invited its participants to imagine future scenarios for the Laurel forest and its entanglement with humans.  In the context of Future Fabulators M-ITI conceived and designed a locally inspired context-aware transmedia story.

 After discussing and highlighting the major drivers of change with regard to the future of the laurisilva forest, we discussed these drivers in relation to three of the four futures mentioned above (we developed the grow scenario as a skeleton, but did not continue incasting, as it didn't resonate with any of the participants). We explored possible scenarios that could develop from mentioned drivers and what the future might be like for M-ITI's fictional character Laura and her herbarium in each of these three alternative futures.  After discussing and highlighting the major drivers of change with regard to the future of the laurisilva forest, we discussed these drivers in relation to three of the four futures mentioned above (we developed the grow scenario as a skeleton, but did not continue incasting, as it didn't resonate with any of the participants).
