Are all Futures now Dystopian? A Debate

A debate about how we create visions of the future.

Pestilence, conflict, climate change, AI, eco-cide: those who imagine the world of tomorrow don’t have a lot of good news to work with at the moment. Have we reached a point where we (writers, designers, politicians) can no longer create an optimistic vision of the future? Or can we foresee a way to engineer ourselves out of this mess?

Let’s debate with:

Emma Dent-Coad - Architectural writer, politician

Steve Webb - Engineer, thinker, Webb Yates Engineers

Rishka Reccani - Maritime Electrical Engineer, Arup

Chris Churchman - Environmental campaigner, cquester

Plus you, the audience - come and have your say.
