HUMANITY UNDER CONSTRUCTION 

​

​

For ten years, Brave New World took shape through yearly themes.
Not as answers, but as entry points. 

Transhumanism. AI. Immortality. Attention. Reality. Inequality. Trust. Optimism.
Each edition opened a different conversation on technological change, shaped by more than 150 artists, thinkers, and scientists.

 

Today, those conversations — always interwoven — are becoming ever more entangled.

 

Technologies converge. Crises overlap.
Science, art, politics, and everyday life are increasingly entangled.
 

The forces shaping our lives cannot be approached one by one, or understood from a single angle.

​​

So Brave New World is changing its structure.

 

Not organised around a theme, 

but around an ongoing process.

 

A process in which humanity and society are being actively constructed — right now.
By technologies already embedded in our lives, and by those only beginning to take form over the next 50 years.

 

This is not about predicting the future.
It is about understanding how the future is being built — and who is building it.

 

Brave New World is not a conference of solutions or showcases.
It is a space for friction, imagination, doubt, and critical reflection.

 

Artists and scientists do not come to explain the future.
They come to expose its assumptions, tensions, and blind spots.

 

Brave New World does not ask what the theme is.
It asks what kind of world is taking shape — and what it means to live in it.

Humanity, under construction.
