MFA in Media Design Practices - 3 Yr Path — Media Design PracticesStrawberry Futures
Strawberry Futures reimagines a future where ugly strawberries are not rejected but celebrated.

In this speculative world, misshapen berries are classified into premium varietals, embedded into menus, and traded as digital commodities, turning waste into cultural and economic value.
