Monika Bielskyte 'Challenging the binaries of dystopia vs utopia and society vs technology'

  • Sumário

  • Series Four

    This episode of The New Abnormal podcast features the renowned futurist and speculative designer, Monika Bielskyte.

    She's also the founder of Protopia Futures, a life-centric design and collaborative foresight platform that centres previously marginalised perspectives. The project's mission is to inspire a new wave of future visions showcasing how a transcultural and interdisciplinary approach, alongside disability and neurodivergence inclusion, can foster regenerative economies for the decades to come and chart an actionable path towards a positively interdependent and compassionate future world.

    Her work is firmly anchored in contextual, complex realities on the ground, rather than one-size-fits-all techno-solutionism, prone to short-term hype cycles and rapid obsolescence. As a speculative designer, Monika prototypes culturally expansive, socially and environmentally engaged future world designs that take lessons from visually and narratively captivating Science Fiction entertainment and apply them to make real-world future literacy more compelling.

    She's a deeply interesting individual, so I found it fascinating listening to her viewpoints and hope you do too!
