How can we imagine a trans future? Kit Schuster joins me to talk about how transgression in fiction can help us think new futures. We speak about trans, nonbinary and gendernonconforming characters, norms and settings in science fiction, but Kit also stresses that their definition of trans is not limited to gender. Instead, Kit invites us to have our queer minds blown in all kinds of ways by future fictions but also by Gothic and horror texts. Apologies for the audio quality!

Il ciclo Passione aliena continua con Antonia Caruso per capire se anche in Italia si sta facendo strada la fantascienza queer e che cosa questa sia. Come scrive Caruso, "La possibilità di non solo essere oggetti narrati ma fare un salto quantico della narrazione immaginando storie, corpi, situazioni conflittuali, cose pazzesche e impossibili, almeno finché qualcun* non le pensa". Perché la fantascienza può creare varchi.

Sandy has been recognized with numerous grants and commissions for public art. She has exhibited in numerous museums including the Decordova Museum and Sculpture Park, the Fitchburg Art Museum, the Portland Art Museum and the Hunterdon Museum.

It's a conversation about what roots us and the places that give us a sense of belonging, and the ways in which that can inform our work and the trajectory of what we create. It's also a conversation about creating fictional future places where we want to be, that feel in our control and expressing what we wish for in the landscapes that we inhabit.

Molti di voi ricorderanno che nella terza puntata di questa quinta stagione il nostro ospite Kaiser Kuo ci aveva parlato dell'ottimismo cinese mettendo a confronto la nostra fase "Black Mirror" con il momento "Star Trek" vissuto a Pechino. Bene, abbiamo deciso di capire qualcosa di più e chi meglio di Francesco Verso ci poteva accompagnare in questo viaggio? Da buon fondatore di Future Fiction, Francesco ha scovato e tradotto decine di autori cinesi nel giro di pochi anni e in questa puntata ci racconta nomi, temi e storia di un genere che spesso racconta molto più di quanto crediamo.
Have you ever heard of people that are paid to contemplate the future? It's true! They exist. They are called Futurists. They even have their own training and schools they attend. And no, they are not psychics. They utilize analysis of big data, trends, and other mental exercises to predict multiple models of possible futures--which can be useful to everyday humans as well as companies and governments. Paul Krauss MA LPC invited Sylvia Gallusser onto the Intentional Clinician podcast to tell us all about what a Futurist is (and isn't), as well as how future-thinking exercises could influence our Psychology and how it is related to Philosophy. Together, we also discuss why futurist thinking is needed more now, than ever. Find out why! Discussed: What a futurist is not, answering the critics of futurism, psychology, psychology and futurism, futurist exercises, future thinking in mental health & psychology, signal scanning, "future back", how futurist principles are aligned with philosophy, time, ideologies, foresight, ethics, limitations in our ability to contemplate the future related to brain structure, mental exercises to stretch our time horizon, future thinking as related to therapeutic tools, as well as examples of futurism in action and applied to projects. And much much more. Sylvia Gallusser - Global Futurist, Founder & CEO @Silicon Humanism Sylvia conducts foresight research on the future of health, well-aging, and social interaction, evolutions in retail and mobility, the future of work, life-long learning, artificial general intelligence, the future of our oceans and sustainability, as well as the future of the mind and transhumanism.

MONDOFUTURO alla scoperta della Fantascienza Cinese! L'ospite del ciclo di incontri organizzato dal Trieste Science+Fiction Festival è Francesco Verso, scrittore due volte premio Urania, editore, mediatore culturale e massimo esperto italiano di fantascienza orientale.Assieme a lui parleremo della fantascienza proveniente fuori dai confini anglofoni ed europei. Una vera e propria via della seta della fantascienza, che grazie alla sua una piccola ma coraggiosa casa editrice - Future Fiction - sta cercando di diffondere sul territorio nazionale. Storie che esplorano le relazioni tra gli esseri umani e la tecnologia, le mutevoli trasformazioni dell'identità personale e dell'organizzazione sociale, l'incontro/scontro tra l'umanità e la scarsità o l'abbondanza di risorse: visioni che scrutano in ogni futuro possibile. Storie di un MONDOFUTURO tutto da scoprire, incredibilmente ricco di sorprese e che troppo a lungo è rimasto inesplorato.
Il solarpunk sembra aver rimesso in gioco l'utopia. Questa nuova corrente letteraria che con visionarietà intende perseguire un futuro migliore e ecosostenibile si sta sviluppando anche in Italia.

With the likes of Ricky Gervais now moving to producing content exclusively for YouTube, and with global companies like Intel and Toshiba funding social media driven dramas, many in the traditional broadcast industry are asking 'Where next for drama and fiction in broadcasting?'. BBC Academy did its best to provide a few tentative suggestions in its latest open forum, the Fusion Future Fiction day, held at BBC Broadcasting House last week. The day set out to explore how technology, emerging themes and audience habits are changing the art, craft, science and business of storytelling on screens large and small, and BBC CoP went along to hear the questions, debates and ideas put forward.
