Journalism and documentary are both technologies of capturing and interrogating the real world. But how might the ways in which we represent reality have changed 20 years ago to head off the current crisis of misinformation? And how might news creators and audiences experience a more nuanced and pluralistic version of reality in 2040?
Building upon the earlier Constructing the New/s discussion, Jessica Clark of the Guild of Future Architect’s New/s Initiative will host a participatory session inviting attendees to imagine alternate pasts and speculative futures for the intersecting practices of documentary and news.
Come prepared to stretch your minds and rethink your assumptions in this fast-paced workshop, in the company of creative makers.
Need some inspiration before jumping in? Take a look at the Making a New Reality toolkit, co-authored by Clark and the guild’s Kamal Sinclair.
