Ready or not - our world is hurtling
into a deep dive of accelerating creation
of those once-future technologies
long-considered science fiction,
into tangible realities happening now ...
And it is prime time to explore - not only
what these new creations are, and what
TOMORROWLAND will look like ... but also
what it means to be a part of this
BRAVE NEW WORLD.
Julie Ann's ConsciousSHIFT guest NYTimes bestselling author
Steven Kotler - author of TOMORROWLAND: Our Journey from
Science Fiction to Science Fact - has written extensively
about these pivotal moments when science and technology
have disrupted - and fundamentally reshaped - our world.
He joins us to share the best of his best, to guide us
on a mind-bending tour of the far frontier,
and how these advances are radically transforming our lives.
From the ways science and technology
are fundamentally altering our bodies and our world
(the world’s first bionic soldier, the future of evolution)
to those explosive collisions between science and culture
(life extension and bioweapons),
we’re crossing moral and ethical lines
we’ve never faced before.
As Kotler writes, “We can’t put Pandora back in the box.
When you strip everything else away, technology
is nothing more than the promise of an easier tomorrow.
It’s the promise of hope. And how do you stop hope?”
Join Julie Ann and Steven to discover the profound questions
and startling advances that are changing our future, NOW.
