It calls for a new ethical, responsible and equitable path towards possible futures, curated through in-depth engagement with and across experiential, environmental and technological possibilities. It tackles three of the most significant challenges for contemporary society by asking: how emerging technologies are implicated in the sites of everyday lives; what is the place of emerging technologies in an evolving world in crisis; and how might we better imagine and shape ethical, equitable and responsible futures. The book interweaves three narratives, each of which advances three sets of concerns for our societal futures: 'Emergence', which addresses futures and uncertainty, trust and anxiety, hope and desire; 'Worlds', which addresses data, air and energy; and 'Technologies', which addresses future mobilities, future homes, and the future of work. Not simply a critical study of emerging technologies, this book is also an approach to thinking and practice in times of global crisis which plays out a mode of future-focused scholarship and practice for the first half of the twenty first century"-- ER -
