「來自未來的朋友」（Having Friends in the Future, HFF）是由國立臺灣工藝研究發展中心發起主辦，由部落對抗機器團隊組織設計的實驗計劃。此次以台灣工藝社群和電子織品、材料科學、文化保存工作者之間的交流為主體，以線上駐村的形式創造遠端討論，且期待此平台和友誼在本次計劃關閉之後仍能延續。
因為疫情而產生的線上活動自2020年8月到12月以各種形式進行，包括線上講座、線上分享個人作品，以及郵寄交換實體的小樣片作為在行動受限時的交流形式。感謝每一位參與者在此次線上活動中，在語言限制、線上交流限制、時差等條件下仍做出貢獻、產生各種交流和推測式討論設計，並以遠端工作坊為國際交流和台灣在地工藝之間創造對話。
