Four Futures is a trans-media project exploring potential societies in a post-capitalist world. Inspired by the premise of Peter Frase’s book Four Futures, this project will imagine how the intersection of climate change and advances in automation will reshape the world in the coming centuries and explore the lives of people living in these vastly different landscapes. A team of 30 artists are collaborating on this work in two different formats—digital and in-person—to tell these sprawling stories using performance, comics, visual design, interactive fiction, and other interdisciplinary formats. - from MCA website
