#Scenario Analysis

A theatrical protocol for imagining disasters that may never occur, bonding participants through shared dread. An endless formula labyrinth on a spreadsheet where analysts are trapped by nested IF statements. The craft of premeditating conclusions first and retrofitting assumptions later to forge pseudo-convincing narratives. A whimsical habit of drafting multiple "futures" and erasing any parallel worlds that don’t pan out. A self-inflicted cycle of risk amplification under the guise of risk mitigation. A commercial divination ritual where the whiteboard becomes an altar and scenario cards the oracles. A dubious fusion of hope and fear pretending to be scientific prediction. A masked ball of uncertainty that compels its attendees to dance in a social rite. A torture art that dissects reality with numbers and reassembles the shards of optimism at random. A cryomancy that freezes the present by endlessly talking about the future.
