Other Futures — The World's first Non-Western Science Fiction Festival — 14 Jan 2018 AMS

Friends of mine have put together something this amazing festival (exhibition/music/workshop/conference/etc) that's opening this weekend in Amsterdam. Come if you're into the alternate futures, non-western imaginaries and scifi.

Here is the website: https://otherfutures.nl/en/

And here is what Other Futures is in their own words:

"Other Futures is a new multidisciplinary online and offline platform for thinkers and builders of other futures. For the first time in the history of science fiction makers and thinkers from different disciplines and different parts of the world will explore the potentialities of the genre together with the public. The first edition of the Other Futures will focus on non-Western science fiction. Other Futures will be a meeting point for sharing new insights about how we want to envision and build our future. The platform uses science fiction not just to reflect upon the future but also as a tool of empowerment in order to build a new and better world."
