Critical Mass Sessions | Beyond Conflict

A future where anything is possible

Time is often seen as linear, a logical continuation of the present. But how do we ever reach a new perspective if we view time like this? How would a real transformation be possible – an inclusive and just future, where people, technology and planet are flourishing together?

Let’s see the future as an opportunity to transcend traditional boundaries, embracing diverse voices and knowledge systems that have long been marginalized. We will share insights from new disciplines such as Future Literacy and Future Design to reshape our understanding of time and seize the opportunity to sculpt a future where anything really is possible.

Michael Bready is an educator, musician and social entrepreneur, dedicated to social transformation and cultural renewal.

As Associate Director at Perspectiva, Michael develops practices and processes that explore transformative responses to the metacrisis.
