Speculative world-model images introduce four civic scenarios: urban machines and sensing; internet attention and bots; sovereign identity and automated eligibility; and humanitarian infrastructure under displacement or network failure. Participants choose one scenario and use ÉTÈ’s shared audit grammar: Situation, Actors, Pressure, Boundary and Evidence.

The screening and discussion draw on Mauricio Orozco’s crisis-oriented LLM worldbuilding, Fatemeh Kazemi’s work on the spatial politics of demilitarized territory, Aphex Redditor’s examination of bots and rage-bait infrastructures, Yuliya Gaydamachenko’s gradual system diagrams, and Ahmad Baydoun’s White Phosphorus research on weaponized environments and spatial evidence.
