Conference Process Book by Emily Myers

Prediction Conference Emily Myers – VISCOM 302

Questions & Key Ideas Potential Topics: CRISPR FASHION PREDICTION For my conference topic I ended up choosing prediction as it contains many different topics and can include both CRISPR and fashion. It is also very confusing to me as to why futurism is usually serving investors and not the working class. Key Ideas will include economics, healthcare, technology, and fashion where the future of society is concerned.

This conference asks one big question: What’s next? From trend tracking to retro-futurism, attendees will learn the possibilities of what lies ahead for humankind. Common themes will include looking to the past to see how they saw the future, sustainability, and how capitalism influences the future of our global self.

Writer and technologist Stephen Petranek became a reluctant doomsayer when his earliest TED Talk (“10 ways the world could end”) racked up 1.5 million views. But Petranek is in fact an optimist who believes that humanity will escape its predicaments -- literally. Within a century, he predicts that humans will have established a city of 80,000 on Mars: and that not only is that plausible, but it’s also inevitable.
