We all need a future we can believe in, and technology has become deeply entwined with our visions of the future. The metaverse, no matter how undefined or unrealized it currently is, provides a shiny new container to hold all of our hopes, dreams, fears and aspirations.
Toshi Anders Hoo, award-winning filmmaker and Emerging Media Lab Director at Emerging Media Lab at Institute for the Future, will explore how we might live, work, play and govern ourselves in these new shared virtual worlds that promise to combine hyperconnectivity with immersive interfaces and new forms of identity, ownership and governance. As we navigate the current hype, excitement and growing opportunities for investment in the various visions of the metaverse, find out how we can think more expansively, creatively and strategically about the range of possible futures we could create and which ones we actually want to work towards and live in.
