Thomas D'hooge 'Pondering the future - looking at the unknowable'

Series Three

This episode of #TheNewAbnormal podcast features Thomas D'hooge, who watches trends, explores futures, develops concepts, builds communities and coaches game-changers. In this interview, we discuss his curation of the Futures Festival,  his viewpoints around digital innovation and disruptive innovation, how he 'Teaches the Future' to students. He also highlights the Museum of Futures - an exhibition of 'futures thinking' which includes his viewpoints relating to this subject as a form of activism and which also reflects a crisis of the contemporary imagination linked to the 'colonisation of forecasting'. Along the way, we discuss a wide range of social  / cultural issues and whilst doing so, Thomas also talks about his own personal experiences with regards to developing hope and resilience.
