This free public forum will bring together leading designers and thinkers to explore the future of the city, presenting a series of compelling and confronting ‘visions’ as provocations or considerations.
What will shape and define the nature and livability of the future city? What are the pressures and circumstances–imminent or distant–that will shape the social fabric of the city in 2040 and the subsequent spatial, physical and ecological realm that 2040 citizens will occupy?
‘2040 City’ is a rapid fast paced exploration into emerging opportunities, technologies and necessities.
Speakers include Prof. Tom Kovac RMIT, Prof. Lyndon Anderson Swinburne NID, Michael Trudgeon CROWD Productions.
Supported by SAAB, Melbourne Water, City of Melbourne, Office of Knowledge Capital, RMIT, British Council, Swinburne, VEIL, Melbourne Water and Crowd Productions.
