The field of Experiential design has gained more relevance as new technological advances change the way we register and document cultural content, audiences are becoming more active in seeking active participation, and cultural organisations are being forced to re-evaluate traditional spaces and approaches to cultural display. As educators working in this field, we are interested in the emergent conceptual spaces created by these advancements and the possible frameworks required to guide our pedagogical thinking. In this paper, we explore how experiential design has the potential to act as a catalyst for exploration and discovery. Through case studies, we explore how alternative ways of inclusivity can be achieved by challenging human-centric perspectives, how experiential dialogues have the potential to blur the lines between performer and audience. Thus, creating dynamic spaces for exchange, exploration, and collaboration; and how cultural associations facilitate ways to become spaces of possibility where transformative experiences can unfold.
