In this workshop, the future will be (re)written. Through “monster writing”—a process of cutting up, piecing together, or overlapping different fragments of texts and visuals full of panic, knowledge, fears, data, dreams, and utopias,—we will rethink and craft new narratives for and of the future. Together, we want to make the future tangible and discussable, and learn to think in completely new ways. This creative method of collaborative writing promotes discussion rather than polarization. Panic? Yes, please!
