- P40 Anthropology and emerging technologies
This panel examined emerging technologies and the ways in which they participate in constituting futures that cannot be predicted or necessarily imagined. We were interested in ethnographic examples from the immediate present, historical, as well as examples of technologies that can only be imagined.
The panel was convened by Sarah Pink (Monash University), Debora Lanzeni (Monash), Karen Waltorp (University of Copenhagen) - P164 Technologies, futures and imaginaries
This panel examines how technologies are bound up in how futures are imagined, narrated, experienced and predicted. For example, what are the implications of increasing uses of sensor technologies, intelligent homes, smart energy technologies, robots or algorithmic decision making for how we imagine our futures with technologies.
The panel was convened by Rachel Charlotte Smith (Aarhus University), Discussant Karen Waltorp (University of Copenhagen) and Sarah Pink (Monash University). - LAB017 Getting dirty: activism, intervention and mobilising future anthropologies
