In this episode, we begin to take a walk on the dark side of the future, starting with fear. We’ll be continuing along this darker – but important – path next week as we tackle despair. But we do get to Hope in a couple of episodes’ time, so stick in there!
While we’re talking about fear, here’s a short video on how, rather than being ruled by fear, we can learn to better balance it with our reason: https://news.asu.edu/content/andrew-maynard-fear

In this episode, how art is connected to the how we think about the future and fuels our imagination of what is possible.
If you’re interested in the idea of minimalistic art, here’s a short piece in Vox about all-white paintings. To me, the value of these is subtler and deeper than is indicated in the article, but it’s an interesting staring point: https://www.openculture.com/2019/01/the-artistry-behind-an-all-white-painting.html
