Twisting time's arrow into a knot, Tony Fry loops together a fictional city's future collapse with our own crises of the present. Urgent and unsettling, his penetrating reflections reveal unexpected opportunities for turning design fiction into design action. * Jamer Hunt, Parsons School of Design, The New School, USA * Tony Fry's second order design fiction approach pulverizes the entanglements of the past and current design intelligentsia. Comprehending the essence of design through the fictional story of Harshon, powerfully moves us to a threshold of awareness of the existential significance of design, from which one is disclosed as engaged design . * Philippe d'Anjou, Florida Atlantic University, USA *
