Start at the End

There’s a many-headed dragon currently casting a long shadow over our futures. Sometimes it reveals itself as climate change, biodiversity loss, the erosion of democratic values or the enshittification of our digital lives. You don’t have to look far for a bad news story. You wouldn’t be alone in feeling frozen and unsure about how you can make a difference.

But there’s some really good news. Did you know that working around creativity and digital tech gives you immense super powers. Ones you probably don’t even know you have? Those knee-deep in fighting for systems change are screaming out for you to bring this talent to bear.

For you are the ultimate purveyors of imagination - a most powerful and hopeful weapon that when used wisely can turn the tide of decline. A total dragon slayer. Some might say that the crises we’re living through are caused by a crisis of imagination. We simply don’t know the power of sharing possible, positive alternatives.

The wild promises of the early distributed internet were a master stroke in imagination. People were inspired and empowered to try and bring their maddest ideas to the world, and amazing things happened, and happened quickly. We’ve come a long way since then. It’s time we step into our possible futures and dare to imagine a bold, regenerative digital world for all. It’s going to be amazing. Let’s start at the end.
