I was an invited presenter at the First International Conference on ANTICIPATION was organized by the UNESCO Chair in Anticipatory Systems with WAAS - World Academy of Art and Science, and ISSS - the International Society for the Systems Sciences, the Advanced Design Network, and the Department of Sociology and Social Sciences of the University of Trento.
This took place 5-7 November 2015 in Trento, Italy. The conference explored anticipation as an emerging field across futures studies, design, governance, uncertainty, and complexity.
This was before, you know — AI and all that. It was a different world. But it was a world where anticipation was already being explored as a critical area of study and practice, and I was honored to be part of that conversation.
