By "speculative design" I refer to design elements that do not solve the problem as we know it today, but rather are focused on solving parts of the problem that we guess are coming. These are design elements that address problems or features about whose future existence we speculate. > I view having an agile model and environment such that one can absorb and > react to change in a rapid manner. I was referring to speculation in the sense of anticipating change, possibly with no actual sign that such change may be forthcoming. -- J. B.
