Can culture lay the groundwork to help us imagine the next crisis? Art, design, literature and games can help us deal with future disasters, not only by exercising our hopes and fears but also by imagining new possibilities and solutions. How can culture and technology work together to help us try out novel ideas for coping with the future?

Will we ever really get away? Or will we only end up taking our problems with us?
