it s our future, love!

seminar #4 / program 18-19 january 2012 it s our future, love! On people and mindsets

mind on fire! 2112 starting now... future mind tours, Büro Reisende Future Mind Tours travels within the human body and mind in order to dive into the conscious and subconscious. Through generations our special technique has been explored and evolved and we are now the proud owners of a Subtrønic Model 645. This allows us to investigate your inner human landscape on the most comfortable journey and almost without any complications. However, sometimes our presence might manifest as disturbances*. The most sublime outcome of this journey is a mind shift in the specific Reisende potentially resulting in a shift in paradigms in the external social landscape. *Subject-reports state following symptoms: Overwhelming inspirations, headaches, moments of spontaneous enlightenment, symbolically loaded dreams, hallucinatory shivers, stutters, butterflies in the stomach, incredible teamwork, memory loss, fever, diarrhea and inexplicable rashes. If you experience symptoms that are not listed here please report back to Future Mind Tours, Büro Reisende. Dear visionary, We need positive visions of sustainable futures. Let us qoute Donella H. Meadows (1941-2001), one of the leading pioneers of sustainable visions and co-author of Limits to growth in 1972: If we don t know where we want to go, it makes little difference that we made great progress. Yet vision is not only missing almost entirely from policy discussions; it is missing from our whole culture. We talk about our fears, frustrations, and doubts endlessly, but we talk only rarely and with embarrassment about our dreams. Donella wrote this in 1994 for the Third Biennial Meeting of the International Society for Ecological Economics, held in Costa Rica. She talked about the need to strengthen ourselves to endure the pain of the enormous gap between the world we know and the world we profoundly long for, and she made people try it themselves. House of Futures believes that we are able to promise each other more than survival during the next 100 years starting now. The world is changing, and people are changing too. Our values, belief systems, consciousness or simply the whole range of our capacities as humans are not the same today as they were back in 1912, and they will not be in 2112 either. No matter whether you see it as an evolvement of the rational human mind, a new enlightenment or a growing spiritual movement, it is happening. We are moving into a new era, and we need to go for shared and responsible visions to begin with. At this fourth and closing In100Y-seminar on people and mindsets we will deal with questions such as: What is sustainability utopias? What will happen when global values shift towards a more integral understanding of the whole? What will our relationship with nature be? How do we change our everyday consumption patterns? What are the historic models for great transformations? And how do we frame our visions for a sustainable future? All of us, we believe, are fuelled by the desire to change towards the better, but also pulled back by the agenda of today; survive and keep business as usual going. Our common future is literally on fire. Come together and be beautiful in spirit! Yours sincerely, House of Futures 3

about the project: in 100 years What The project In 100 years starting now is developed and will be facilitated by House of Futures during 2011-12. The project will explore and debate questions such as: - How can we sustain, develop and enrich human existence given the limited resources available on planet Earth? - what does it take to co-create sustainable societal growth/development in the long run? - and what are the preferred sustainable futures? Why In 100 years starting now has two overall purposes. The first is to develop and present alternative visions for sustainable societies to the general public and to decision makers in the public and private sector. The second purpose is an assessment of whether and how the VELUX FOUNDATION should support the establishment of a center for environment and sustainability in Denmark. A core group of high profile Danish experts will follow the four seminars and based on a parallel backcasting process give their recommendations to the foundation in April 2012. How Four In100Y-seminars will play a central role in re-working the agenda of sustainability and growth/development. The first seminar did focus on visions of sustainable growth, the second on policy and business models, the third on nature and technology and the fourth will focus on people and mindsets. The seminars are independent events yet also form part of a scenario process running the course of almost a year. We use Futures Studies methods in a 100 year scope combined with Performance Art to frame the necessary and preferred transformations and futures. The process involves 150+ interdisciplinary experts and thinkers from different fields, who rework and cocreate visions of sustainable futures. After the four seminars House of Futures will present two preferred futures for sustainable societies 2112 in a magazine publication, that all participants will receive for free. Our vision is that this project will make a unique Scandinavian contribution to the global debate on how we can meet the needs of the present without compromising future generations. read more about in 100 years starting now at www.in100y.dk scenario process Seminar 1 Seminar 2 Seminar 3 Seminar 4 members of the core group are: Steen Hildebrandt, Ph.D, Professor, Institute of Leadership, Aarhus University.

These sketches are not in them- is the deep and broad understanding the calls for mind shift focus on one that our actions have consequences that factor, namely mindset. we need to take into account and take responsibility for. And the call for a mindshift is rooted in the idea that genuine We implicitly operate with a baseline Baseline scenario: I=PAT transformation of humanity s relationship scenario, a continuation of present with nature not just requires solid scientific knowledge, but also our consistent therefore requires a transformation. trends, which is not sustainable and acting on this knowledge. This on the basis of the IPAT model, where the impact (I) that human Scenarios activity has on our global resource Working with scenarios in the form of base is a function of population (P), preferred futures is a tool which is per- affluence (A) and technology (T) all broadly defined. While population is on a long-term stabilising trend and technology steadily contributes to a certain decoupling of resource impact from affluence, the trend speed is much too slow to significantly reduce the long-run widening gap between impact and global resourcefulness. So, transformation is needed. The sketches that we have presented take mindset as the basic variable and driver of change. In IPAT terms, it could be said that this pertains to the A and T variables what is affluence in the broadest sense, and how can we develop systems (technology in a broader sense) that allows us to achieve desired affluence in a sustainable way. Enlightenment, Copernicus and Darwin It is necessary to rethink our relationship with Planet Earth, and in this process to develop new mindsets. It is possible, and we have done it before. But we are talking large-scale paradigm shifts comparable to the age of the Enlightenment or to pioneering breakthroughs like those of Copernicus or Darwin - breakthroughs that changed our understanding of ourselves and nature. Our sketches point to two possible transformative future mindsets that could drive sustainability forward. We call them the Power of Nature and Man-Made World. Scenarios as enabling tools Scenarios are not plans but tools to promote constructive ideas about the future. They can serve as framework for our common debates about the longterm future. And they can be applied by individual institutions and social agents as reference points for their own visions and plans.

sketch of scenarios towards 2112 #1: Man-made world about futures studies in in100years : making future times Geologists, biologists and climate scientists are telling us that Earth s metabolism is changing significantly, and that human activities are the main driving force behind this. We realize that when we put our minds to it, we can develop technologies, organizations, political institutions and business models that allow us to prosper in ways that do not jeopardize the planet. Collectively, we are approaching a state of global stewardship in which we manage our planet rationally, like any sensible landowner would his property. FROM THE PERFORMANCE INSTALLATION SENSED FUTURES AT SEMINAR 2. PHOTO: XX? In 100 years starting now has given House of Futures the opportunity to unfold our approaches together with 150+ highly qualified and inter-disciplinary group of participants, and we have given our best to fulfill the opportunities to co-create preferred futures for sustainable societies in the long run in an experimental setting. This fourth seminar will be no exception. About Futures Studies ing our own. The new insights led to a new dynamic in the field of futures studies and the founding of a range of large centers and institutes for futures studies around the world. Scenarios or alternative futures became in favor as the core method, but often without connecting back to the present and the personal domain, tending to leave the subject floating out there 10, 20 and even 50 years from now. Supported by private finan-cing Interdisciplinary creation of futures is and funding the field matured. So did #2: the power of nature the heart beat of our work, and House a world view of economic liberalism We are part of the world we are ONE. The global family share a common biology and collective conscoiusness, and we know we are rooted in nature. On a deeper level, these are sources of meaning that we all tap into, regardless of nationality or culture. Some stress our common DNA, the laws of nature, evolution and our dependence on the earth s ecosystems. Some draw on religious imagery of an almighty Creator. And some rely on ancient wisdom and myths, emphasizing commonality and civility among humans. Mankind is maturing and tends to become an integrated organic part of the world s ecosystem. FROM THE PERFORMANCE INSTALLATION SENSED FUTURES AT SEMINAR 2. PHOTO: XX? of Futures is organizational member of the Association of Professional Futurists (APF) and the World Future Society. The Futures Studies field emerged during the mid-twentieth Century in the wake of the 2nd World War and the desire among decision makers to overview global developments as well as anticipate challenges ahead. Yet still, out from a conviction that there would be a single, probable future ahead. Moon landing, oil crises, youth culture and new values of the sixties challenged that assumption. The future was starting and with it, the ideological answer to almost any questions about the future; Let the market decide. By the end of the twenty-first Century the market has shown its capabilities in delivering the goods, but also its failings in holistic and long term thinking. House of Futures represents a new way of doing Futures Studies. It could be described as a future talk and walk in order to create a sense of living the future now.
