Brave New Now. (4th April 2013) - Young, Liam
Abstract Under Tomorrow's Sky is a fictional future city. For the project, speculative architect Liam Young assembled a think‐tank of scientists, technologists, futurists, illustrators and science‐fiction authors to collectively develop this imaginary place, the landscapes that surround it and the stories it contains. The city forms a stage set for a collection of fictions, emerging infrastructures and design experiments. It is an imaginary landscape extrapolated from the wonders and possibilities of emerging biological and technological research. Here, speculative fiction provides a critical tool, which is visionary in its trajectory while provoking us to examine some of the most pertinent questions facing us today.
