Stef Silva — Future Talks EOL

“We have tended to imagine the imaginable, the possible, the concrete, the obvious”.

“This is the problem: where people are not looking, where thy are not imagining, which subjects from, which mental images are not being created”.

“The technology we design is totally linked to the culture that designs it”.

“I would like to ask you to open the spectrum of the imaginable all together. Let’s make the imaginarey much wider, much more alternative”.
