Breakfast of Champions, Mother Night, Slaughterhouse Five, Cat's Cradle, Player Piano moved my young mind, the craziness and brilliance of life. Premiering at NY Film Festival Nov 7th, a documentary on Kurt Vonnegut that took a lifetime to make. bit.ly/3Cvhnj8 #films

An article from Ozy, solid writing, thanks to @josefinesalomon, and for the mention, @stevekleber. FYI, pro futurists don't predict and futures ends with an s. There's a whole slew of many possible futures, way beyond "the future." Good to be back, twitterworld.#cities #urbanism

Looking forward to America debate this one! The voices of people using psilocybin in guided therapies will likely be Vets, Moms, Cancer patients. It could reframe conversations on mental health and I think our view of the universe once people look at tree bark while on mushrooms.

We can expect more research on psychedelics in the US now they are starting to be decriminalized. Highly recommend Magic Medicine, a fascinating film following 3 UK volunteers with treatment resistant depression through their experiences with psilocybin. youtube.com/watch?v=UGN2l-…

@BRICTV thanks Brian @brictv for a lively town hall this evening. Let's do one live in Brooklyn later. And maybe you'll do hybrid town halls - a safe number in person, thousands online.

"What are you going to do with the buildings that end up no longer being useful the way they were? I really believe that we have had industrialized cities forced upon us...and this is an opportunity to rethink how they work, so they're not a stressor on our lives." -@Urbanverse

Pleased to contribute to this book of essays about the brilliant and influential Future Shock by Alvin Toffler as a 50 year review. Does new tech still confuse and disrupt, or have we grown used to rapid change?

“My 90-year-old mother streams Doris Day songs on her Echo speaker with just a verbal command. In sum, we manage a multitude of changes on our own terms.” —Cindy Frewen (wrting in After Shock) @Urbanverse #futureshockat50 #ai #tech #future amzn.to/2QWOCH1

Foresight is serious, demanding, data-driven work. For journalists who write about the future -- interviewing only or mostly men means you're writing about the future of X with blinders on. It's an easy problem to fix.

It was an honour having you @Urbanverse at DFS' Future Cafe! You inspired us with your talk where you touched upon paradigms of the urban landscape of the future! Thank you for that!
