Dreaming Against the Machine

What might a good future look like?

Explore ideas about how to envision better, realistic, equitable futures with astrophysicist and journalist Dr. Adam Becker. Each week, Adam and a new guest will try to find hope in the darkness of the current political moment through earnest (and entertaining!) conversations about what such a future might look like. In a world where tech oligarchs and their power fantasies are driving visions of the future, Dreaming Against the Machine aims to take back the public conversation about what our world can and should be.

Looking for guests who are innovative thinkers, activists, or scholars with unique insights on creating equitable, sustainable futures, and who can engage in deep, hopeful discussions about overcoming societal challenges driven by technology and power structures.
