Transition movement founder Rob Hopkins will take us on a deep dive into the radical imagination, introducing us to the quantum art of time travelling, the art of the 'What If' question, the difference between 'yes/ but' and 'yes/and', the revolutionary power of the humble potato, taking us on a trip to the future that turned out the best it could have possibly turned out, sharing with us the neuroscience around why falling in love with the future is so important, as well as teaching us some silly games.Bell hooks once wrote that 'what we cannot imagine cannot come into being', and in this dynamic workshop Rob will take us on a journey into the power of 'temporal fluidity', turning us all into time travellers and masters at the art of cultivating longing for the future.
