When:
8:00 PM, Friday 12 Feb 2021 (1 hour)
Where:
Red Lion Hotel Pasco, WA - Great Hall
How:
Covid-19 has sent us all into our bedrooms, from which we work, play, and socialize via the internet. Sure, sci-fi promised us flying cars, but it also promised us a dark, technologically saturated corporate dystopia. From information wars, to live streams of police brutality, to VR concerts, to mechanized robot dolphins–ok maybe not everything–is this the cyberpunk world that was foretold? How is now the very future that 80s & 90s writers foresaw, and how is it different? How has disruptive technology turned out better that we imagined, yet worse than we feared? And what can we do to change the negatives? Beam in from your bedroom to join our discussion!
