Introduction - A World In Turmoil

In today’s episode of Future Rising , Andrew Maynard takes inspiration from William Anders’ 1968 photograph “Earthrise” as he considers our relationship to what comes next, and our collective and individual responsibilities to it.Check out Bill Anders’ Earthrise photo here: https://www.nasa.gov/multimedia/imagegallery/image_feature_1249.html For more on the book Future Rising: A Journey from the Past to the Edge of Tomorrow, check out http://futurerisingbook.comWe’ll be positing new episodes of Future Rising on Monday’s Wednesday’s and Fridays.

Earthrise – How a 1968 photo transformed how we think about the future

Before the big bang there was no future and no past – just a pinprick of potential that existed outside what we now think of space and time. In today’s episode of Future Rising we go back to the beginning of everything, and the emergence of a universe that is governed by the flow of time between past and future.If you’re interested in more on the origins of everything, this National Geographic video is a good place to start: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HdPzOWlLrbE For more on the book Future Rising: A Journey from the Past to the Edge of Tomorrow, check out http://futurerisingbook.comWe’ll be positing new episodes of Future Rising on Monday’s Wednesday’s and Fridays.

Anticipation – How awareness of the future affects our decisions in the present

Join scientist and author Andrew Maynard on a journey into our relationship with the future, and our responsibility to it. Based on the book Future Rising: A Journey from the Past to the Edge of Tomorrow.

In today’s episode of Future Rising we consider something we all rely on, and yet can get us into trouble as we build a future that’s very different from the past: instinct. If you’re interested in more on human behavior – and this touches on instinct but goes far beyond it – I’d highly recommend this talk by Nobel Laureate Daniel Kahneman on system 1 and system 2 thinking: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CjVQJdIrDJ0 For more on the book Future Rising: A Journey from the Past to the Edge of Tomorrow, check out http://futurerisingbook.comWe’ll be positing new episodes of Future Rising on Monday’s Wednesday’s and Fridays.

Instinct – The power and perils of building the future based on gut feelings

In today’s episode of Future Rising we consider the fundamental importance of how cause and effect govern the threads between past and future, and our ability to impact the future through our actions.One of the trickier aspects of causality is where correlation—an apparent relationship between two things—is mistaken for a cause-effect relationship. We don’t go into this in the podcast, but if you’re interested in some of the weirder examples of correlation that has nothing to do with causation, check out these: https://www.tylervigen.com/spurious-correlationsFor more on the book Future Rising: A Journey from the Past to the Edge of Tomorrow, check out http://futurerisingbook.comWe’ll be positing new episodes of Future Rising on Monday’s Wednesday’s and Fridays.

Causality – How cause and effect are connected to the future

In today’s episode of Future Rising we consider how memory is vital to connecting past effects with future causes, and how as a result it is essential to our ability to build a better future. One of the stories mentioned in this episode is that of British musician Clive Wearing.

Learning – Moving Beyond Instinct 

In today’s episode of Future Rising, we consider how intention affects not only how we think about the future, but our attitudes toward changing it.In this episode I refer to the Terminator movies, and John Connor’s famous line “The future is not set. There is no fate but what we make for ourselves.” It is, admittedly, a bit of a trivial link, but it does illuminate the difference between being passive versus active participants in crafting the future. It’s also a subtle nod to my previous book Films from the Future, which explores socially responsible science and innovation through sci-fi movies, but which sadly does not include The Terminator!

Reason – A Window into the Future 

If you’ve been listening to season one of Future Rising, you’ll know that most podcast episodes are short and hopefully insightful and engaging readings from the book Future Rising. This episode is different – it’s a lot longer for a start. As we’re currently in between seasons, I thought I’d post a bonus episode that captures some of the thinking and reasoning behind the book and the podcast.This episode is based on a TEDx talk that was scheduled to take place in early 2020, but was cancelled due to COVID. It draws on the back-story behind the book Future Rising as it riffs off the idea of thinking about the future as an object. But at its heart it’s about the importance of thinking differently about the future in the increasingly complex and interconnected world we live in.If you enjoy it, please do check out season one of the podcast, and subscribe on your favorite podcast platform so that you don’t miss season two when it comes out this fall.And if you’re interested in more of my work around society and the future, check out my website at http://andrewmaynard.net.Until then – take care!Host:Professor Andrew MaynardWeb: http://andrewmaynard.netTwitter: http://twitter.com/2020scienceInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/literallyandrewmaynard/
