Concept worlds are social design's version of concept cars. You build them to show what's possible at the limits, and nobody expects them on the assembly line.
How the word moved
I named them in November 2021, in M6: The Unmedium, part of the Mauhaus series.
In my words
"I call them concept worlds."
