On March 16, a variety of SURFer’s toured the Retro Future gallery at Evoluon. Additionally, the group was able to enjoy a workshop by Next Nature on their unique model of the Pyramid of Technology. The Pyramid of Technology is now available as a workshop at SURF as a resource for teams to try and experiment with. This workshop would guide participants through seeing and understanding technologies in a different way while generating new ideas. With the help of this workshop, you learn to visualize how technology becomes nature and what we can learn from that.
The future is not a destination –
it’s [about] practicing possible futures.
It’s about rehearsing different strategic options.
There is no shortage of talk about the future at SURF. The Copenhagen Institute for future studies was welcomed to SURF on February 28th and 29th to introduce applied strategic forecasting to a variety of SURF participants. The scenarios, skills and ideas built in the training would create new ways of thinking about the future as a tool and offer models to use that tool. The trainers, Simon Fuglsang Østergaard and Sofie Hvitved were there to guide the process.
