"Disability should move from the realm of the hospital to the realm of political minority.” Rosemarie Garland-Thomson, Extraordinary Bodies

Disability is often seen and treated as primarily a medical condition, something to be dealt with through technology and healthcare practices. This creates a limited conception of how we build and design for disabilities, and excludes input, talents, imaginations and agency of disabled people themselves.

This is an open call for creatives that identify as disabled/crip to create speculative works - either through video, illustration, design, or written - that imagine near future worlds that goes beyond accommodation and inclusion to one actively shaped by the desires, needs and radical possibilities of disabled peoples, towards practices of speculative care and caring spaces. By placing power in the lived experiences of the disabled communities, we can confront systems of power that are bound up with questions of care and care-taking.
