#SpecFuturism #HOPES: The strength of our digital unity empowers personal systems of myth to harmonize the individual with the non-digital.

FEAR: A future where serendipity is dismantled and spontaneity is dissolved. A time without the possibility of the unknown #SpecFuturism

[Dorothy R. Santos, Ph.D. ⬇️ @drs.bsky.social @deedottiedot]

Fear-The impossibility of thorough research that leads to invisibility due to our cultural blind spots and constant parallax. #SpecFuturism

[Nick Tierce @nickytea]

#SpecFuturism #FEARS: Unyielding literalism on both extremes of future conflicts separates us beyond any hope of reconciling our metaphors.

The future is when you decide if you're a sheep or demi-god. The past is when you get eaten before you decide. #SpecFuturism

I fear “mind the gaps” signs on subways are all too real of future premonition. #SpecFuturism

[Kara Q Smith @karaQsmith]

I hope art, both old + new, liberates minds + perspectives from stagnant paths + corporate propaganda forever more. #SpecFuturism

[Anna Muessig @annabike]

FEAR: Massive apathy attack suffocates us before global warming does. #SpecFuturism

HOPE: Nerds turn their prowess towards better public policy, service delivery, and open data, not sexting apps #SpecFuturism

HOPE: A future without boundaries. A time for creative acts to be the catalyst to step over borders and through barriers. #SpecFuturism...

[Sara Thacher @thacher]

FEAR: We needed a larger definition of “I” ... when we looked around, we only saw “them.” #SpecFuturism

[Rachel Gagnon @rachel_l_g]

HOPE: Connecting w/ each other will always feel like this (no matter how much the way we do it changes) http://t.co/bCDve6RTN8 #SpecFuturism

1) #SpecFuturism fears: J.G. Ballard's predictions deepen, darken.

Kim K's butt is now self-aware, joins Skynet, destroys us all.

[Keir Winesmith (dr/prof) @drkeir]

FEAR: Long-term smartphone use kills. Smartphones are taxed so that only the addicted, the needy or the young use them. #SpecFuturism
