<br>
What new challenges and eternal questions will tomorrow's SF address? Will it advocate for a better world, or warn against a worse one? Who will create it, and why?<br>
<br>
Since its invention, science fiction has taken many forms - from its beginnings in the gothic horror of Frankenstein, through the globe-trotting adventures of Jules Verne, the techno-utopianism of its Golden Age, the trippy fantasies of New Wave and the slick, corporate dystopias of cyberpunk. But what will it evolve into next?<br>
<br>
Speakers include: Sumit Paul-Choudhury and Nimrod Vardi, Adam Roberts, Beth Singler, Yen Ooi, Caroline Edwards, Jo Walton, Sumit Paul-Choudhury, Glyn Morgan, Steward Hotston, Lavie Tidhar, Neon Yang, Modupe Ayinde, Aliette de Bodard. More speakers to be announced in the coming weeks. </p>

<br>
℧R reflects on violence as a foundation of current algorithmic societies: a violence of instructions, of systems, of infrastructures created with the specific purpose of abusing all living beings. Such systems work through loops, organised repetitions. Humans make instructions, machines repeat instructions, living things suffer instructions, on and on and on. The piece takes the loop as a starting point to combine multi-sensorial stimulation with human-computer interaction and somatic practices to test the seeming impossibilities of bodily articulation and repetition. Embodied in Marco Donnarumma’s musical instrument XTH Sense, an interactive, machine learning algorithm transforms the inner sound of muscles, blood, and bones into a real-time choreography of movement, sounds and light.<br>
<br>
The evening ends with an artist talk unfolding the ideas, research and artistic methodology behind the Humane Methods saga (2019-ad infinitum).</p>
