Many famous writers, decades and even centuries ago, have used their imagination and tried to predict what might happen in future times. Some of the best and most popular movies were also inspired by the same subject, some of them predicted travels to the galaxies far, far away and others were not so optimistic so they imagined the end of our civilization. But not all of these predictions are based on one’s imagination; there are events and even conventions that are trying to do the same, based on the real knowledge and technology we have today. One of these events is being held in London for the last couple of years and it has become a real Mecca for the futurists from all over the world. FutureFest is designed as a multi-format festival with a schedule that includes discussions, performances, installations and interactive experiences. This festival is being supported by many prominent companies and institutions such as Microsoft Research, the British Council, the Oxford Martin School, Convergence, the Science Museum, Signal Noise, Clever Franke and many others. Visitors will be able to try technology which transmits sensory experiences over the internet, a virtual reality thrill ride that transmits you through your own psychedelic landscape and tasting sessions in the Sweetshop of the Future. Also, there will be many interesting seminars where you will be able to see and hear for example NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden, Darkwallet founder Amir Taaki and authors Jon Ronson and John Lanchester. They will all give their thoughts based on their own experience and knowledge about possible scenarios that might come to realization soon. So if you want to know what might hit us all in the near future visit the FutureFest and don’t let yourself be unprepared.

Content Body:

There is probably no person that has never asked how the future might look like. Many famous writers, decades and even centuries ago, have used their imagination and tried to predict what might happen in future times. Some of the best and most popular movies were also inspired by the same subject, some of them predicted travels to the galaxies far, far away and others were not so optimistic so they imagined the end of our civilization. But not all of these predictions are based on one’s imagination; there are events and even conventions that are trying to do the same, based on the real knowledge and technology we have today. One of these events is being held in London for the last couple of years and it has become a real Mecca for the futurists from all over the world.

FutureFest is designed as a multi-format festival with a schedule that includes discussions, performances, installations and interactive experiences. This festival is being supported by many prominent companies and institutions such as Microsoft Research, the British Council, the Oxford Martin School, Convergence, the Science Museum, Signal Noise, Clever Franke and many others. Visitors will be able to try technology which transmits sensory experiences over the internet, a virtual reality thrill ride that transmits you through your own psychedelic landscape and tasting sessions in the Sweetshop of the Future. Also, there will be many interesting seminars where you will be able to see and hear for example NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden, Darkwallet founder Amir Taaki and authors Jon Ronson and John Lanchester. They will all give their thoughts based on their own experience and knowledge about possible scenarios that might come to realization soon. So if you want to know what might hit us all in the near future visit the FutureFest and don’t let yourself be unprepared.
