future laboratory

We will collect prognoses, predictions, prophecies and fictional accounts of the future. We will identify various strategies of predicting the future. We will make our own predictions. We will start imagining performances for these different futures. We will visit places of the future (possible sites: Cardiff Millennium Centre, Cardiff Millennium Stadium, the Future Inn Hotel in Cardiff Bay, the Port Talbot Steelworks that have allegedly inspired director Ridley Scott for his vision of the future as depicted in the film Blade Runner). We will look at artistic forms that address the future. We will write manifestos and proposals for the year 2020.

Join us for the workshop at Chapter Arts Centre on October 14-16, 2pm-6pm. The workshop is open to anybody who is interested. If you would like to attend, please send us an email to future@random-people.net. The outcomes of the workshop will be presented as part of the 2020 closing presentation at Experimentica, October 17, 6:30pm.
