Futures:

Teaching Futures Studies is not only spreading ideas, but also stirring imaginations. Students and I, we share our opinions about futures and try to shift the limitation of our career, our lives, our society and the outside world. One of the interesting things we use to do is creating dialogue between technology and humanity, economics and environment, reality and ideality. For me, teaching futures courses is a way to push young generation to think over possible futures and act out their ideal. So, besides futures courses in economics, I'd like to teach a subject of films and futures studies some other days.
