How to Thrive in 2050? On neurodiversity and creative knowledge exchange with Kai Syng Tan

Part of the Knowledge Exchange in Practice Event Series

What could or should a more equitable and creative 2050 look like? How should we extend our tentacles and to network with others, including members of different species? What existing and new networks can we form to solidarise and exchange knowledge?

This online interactive seminar by Kai Syng Tan, as part of the CHASE KEH Knowledge Exchange in Practice event series and one of several of Kai’s ‘masterclasses’, intended to knock, mock and knock down the master’s (sic) story. Through clips from a commissioned film about a ‘neuro-futuristic’ 2050, How to Thrive in 2050? which premiered on BBC iPlayer, we strategised creative approaches that prioritise neurodiversity and creativity.
