Second Science Fiction and the Future of Detection and Imaging, SF Days

This workshop is a sequel to the first SF days organized in 2022 at IdeaSquare. The purpose is to engage participants in discussions related to the role of technology in future societies (e.g. detection and imaging) and to communicating them to laymen, in an unashamedly futuristic and speculative setting. The challenge: How to approach the concept of Post Truth Society, using tools and methods from Science Fiction writing? The participants are invited to: extrapolate from the results from the previous workshop potential futures in which the science and technology are an integral part of Post Truth Societies. They also have come up with narratives that scientists can use while communicating the significance and future possibilities of the work being done at CERN and ATTRACT. We invite SF-writers, philosophers, futurists, designers, anthropologists, political scientists, sociologists, psychologists, historians, engineers and (selected) physicists to attend.
