Sneak peek at some of the forthcoming sessions
The Radical and the Resilient – Narratives to Highlight the Road to Diverse Futures of Work
This Millennium Project Special Session, organised as a Futures Clinique, will focus on the resilience of future workspaces amid digital and green transitions. Participants will explore radical narratives of the futures of work as actor-based futures images for 2035, derived from two-round Delphi study and expert interviews. Using agile foresight methods, small groups will co-creatively elaborate and evaluate the narratives.
Workshop: Imagining the Good Life – Fast Futures Literacy Laboratory
Join this Fast Futures Literacy Laboratory to explore the socio-ecological dimension of sustainable transformation and understanding of a ‘good life’. This interactive workshop will move beyond technological solutions for sustainable transformations to focus on what truly makes a good life where individuals can satisfy their needs while accessing social and ecological resources for doing so. Participants will contribute to creating images of the future by exploring the nuances between present-day and future satisfiers.
Workshop: Future Archeologies Method – A Hands-on Approach to Speculative Futures
Discover preposterous future trajectories and possibilities in this hands-on workshop using the Future Archeologies Method. This approach places future imaginary technologies in our everyday context, showing how they may change our daily life while revealing our hidden assumptions about the future. Join the workshop to explore how tomorrow’s technologies may affect and change society.
