In this participatory workshop, we'll explore the major contributors to the internet's carbon emissions as well as build upon and dream of positive steps towards a more sustainable internet.

title_ : Peek- creating games for understanding futures
@ -25,6 +26,7 @@
description: |
In this workshop participants will make their own version of the science fiction/novel game, [Peek](http://thepeekgame.com/). Peek is an entertaining game for exploring the complexities and twisted narratives of the future, using a variety of story structures from traditional literature. In a series of exercises, participants will learn strategies for developing narrative games and will ultimately use Peek as a basis to create their own version of a speculative futures game, with their own stories and characters. No experience is required.

title_ : Avatars in Zoom for All
@ -39,6 +41,7 @@
description: |
How can you be anybody in Zoomspace? Very recent developments in deep-learning, allow creating synthetic media of unprecedented quality and ease. The first-order-motion-model can do facial reenactment in real-time, provided with only a single image of your desired avatar. This came not a moment too soon, as Human communication was forced to move online due to the Coronavirus pandemic. Can this be an opportunity to fulfil the long promised cybernetic utopia, where we could shed our physical shells and become however we wish to be? And how does this pertain to issues of privacy, identity and trust? I will review the contemporary technologies and show how I use them in my artistic and activist practices. This is a hands-on participatory tutorial, where you will create deep-fake videos using your own materials, and play with various options of becoming an online avatar. No prior knowledge needed.

title_ : PGPoetry workshop
@ -51,6 +54,7 @@
description: |
PGPoetry (Pretty Good Poetry) celebrates the aesthetic, poetic and political possibilities of PGP (Pretty Good Privacy) encryption protocol. Using PGP encryption protocol, I create abstract random poetry, readable only for the eyes of a specific recipient and of spying agencies (if they can decrypt them). For the rest of the world, the poems are basically digital Rorschach inkblot, and its meaning, as in every piece of art - depends on the audience's interpretation (interpretation is decryption!). With the rise of state surveillance in these emergency times, this project is more relevant than ever. PGPoetry workshop is an algorithmic poetry workshop which is also a crypto party for emergency times. In the workshop, the participants will try to figure out (and probably fail) how to read these poems, while I put them in the context and tradition of digital poetry and encrypted poetry, and raise questions about their meaning and artistic value. Then, I will teach the participants how to use PGP protocol via web based tools, and guide them as they experiment with creating PGPoetry.

title_ : Futures Literacy for the Regenerative Economy
@ -63,6 +67,7 @@
description: |
We use the future everyday: when we plan what to eat for dinner, when we ruminate on life after COVID, when we demand action on carbon emissions and racist policing. But when we stop to think about the future itself, rather than what we want to happen in it, something quite profound can begin to happen. Karl Popper spoke of the ‘poverty of the imagination’, whereby fallacies of determinism begin to colonise our understandings of what is possible, and our hopes and fears begin to obscure the emergent, unpredictable nature of our complex world. As Riel Miller has said: “We betray the potential of our imagination to illuminate and invent the present if we cannot be liberated from the tyranny of using-the-future to win.” Our heterodox world of resistance has a host of compelling images and narratives of the future encoded into it, but how often do we make all of their assumptions explicit, play with them, and test and nurture our resilience by troubling them? This workshop has three stages, following the Futures Literacy Novelty Laboratory model (FLL-N): Reveal, Reframe, and Rethink. Each stage is carefully designed to guide participants from utopia, into uncertainty, and back again, availing of co-creative heuristics from Critical Futures Studies to distil the myths of our ‘anticipatory assumptions’, and to point the way to a ‘decolonisation of the future’, so that life is lived values-first in the present, rather than in anguish over the plainly unforeseeable. We will take as our subject matter on this journey: ‘futures of the regenerative economy’

To quote Lizzie O’Shea in Future Histories, “The purpose of a usable past is not simply to be a record of history. Rather, by building a shared appreciation of moments and traditions in collective history, a usable past is a method for creating the world we want to see.” Very often past events and history can give us important signs to understand contemporary systems and technologies, and sometimes, also where decisions - good or bad - might be rooted. This talk will explore how algorithmic systems are becoming essential bricks for building and reorganising big parts of our society, but also how, while these systems are being adopted across different areas, we start to perceive the world through a less human and more machine-like lens. Touching on historical and literature references the talk will look at the politics and consequences of an algorithmically driven world and how artistic and activist groups can inspire critical conversations around the deployment of these systems, while enabling us to rethink and redesign these, for the shift to a more equitable AI.

ReclaimFutures have teamed up with The [New Design Congress](https://newdesigncongress.org/) to bring you a new livestream series - [The Para-Real: Finding the Future in Unexpected Places](https://stream.undersco.re/), a free series about subcultures building livelihoods in spite of platform exploitation and fractured societies. Over 12 episodes streamed weekly, we meet filmmakers who have never met their actors, artists building their own networks of value, documentarians exploring digital identity, and members of resilient subcultures. All of these people share a commonality: they have an innate understanding of the Para-Real, and have seized upon it to better their surroundings.
### What is the Para-Real?
Between the digital realm and our physical world, The Para-Real is a third space, equally material but poorly understood. The Para-Real is where class politics, economics and the outcomes of hardware and infrastructure design collide. It manifests as the desire for play that turns young Minecraft players into network server administrators, the moments where digital security meets physical safety, the creation of mutually-supportive artist-driven marketplaces or the tension inherent in Virtual Reality’s land-grab in the living room. The Para-Real is the embodiment of the observation,
*‘We shape our tools, and thereafter our tools shape us.’*
The future is not a Zoom call. The digital systems we are confined to today merge protocol with platform to prey on isolation and extract value from labour. That we grapple with this incarnation of the digital realm indicates a dominant cartel in decline. In its place is a vacuum. We must resist the immature groupthink of the 90s’ vision of what the Internet can be. The Para-Real is once again contested space.
