IdeaSquare and School of Commons are collaborating on a series of workshops exploring 'The Future of Collaboration'.
How do we prepare for a future we don’t yet know? A future in which collaboration of different forms will be inevitable... What will these collaborations look like in our near and distant futures?
The tools and approaches we use today may become obsolete for the futures that lie ahead of us, so how can we prepare for these unknowns? Assuming that collaboration with different forms, such as blended intelligence-like human-AI collaboration-multi-species exchange-like with mushrooms or ants-will become more and more relevant to our functioning and survival, in this workshop we will explore ‘the future of collaboration’ through a multitude of forms and perspectives. What will it feel like collaborating with the more-or-other-than human; with plants, food, objects, technologies, animals? What are the necessary tools, approaches and incentives required in order to create a desirable future collaboration?
CERN, where the Large Hadron Collider and World Wide Web was born, has a long and established history of anticipating and creating non-incremental ideas and technologies. In this workshop you will explore a collaborative framework for innovation that addresses and centers the unknown. For this series of workshops they are collaborating with School of Commons to explore 'the future of collaboration' through a series of bold and daring 'unknowns'.
