UNTHINKABLE

Futures reimagined. Realities not yet considered. Ideas to explore. We are hurtling full–speed towards a future that feels determined. One of privacy disruption, climate crisis and deeply divided politics. But ideas shift. Times change. We adapt. So how can we be sure we’re headed in the right direction?

UNTHINKABLE is a series of talks exploring the questions we haven’t asked, the futures we can avoid and the realities we are yet to consider.

Please note: Due to several events happening across the Carriageworks precinct, we strongly recommend catching public transport to Unthinkable. No on-site parking will be available.
