"The Vision Thing: From Black Mirror to Foresight Planning"

This panel will explore how different organisations and society perceive and plan for the future, especially in relation to the evolution of new digital technologies. This visioning is especially important where the technologies being considered have potential societal harms, such as those associated with enhanced surveillance and/or privacy infringements. Foresight mechanisms can include trend monitoring and analysis, scenario planning, technology road mapping, and foresight workshops and innovation labs. They are designed to help organisations plan for the future. In this panel we will explore the processes of foresight planning from distinctly different perspectives, including from commercial, service, regulatory and literary perspectives. The speakers will contrast how the future is perceived in science fiction, by futurists, and by those who promote, use and regulate such technologies.

Questions to be answered:
- How do organisations plan for different technological futures?
- How do societal attitudes shape technological diffusion?
- How is the diffusion of controversial technologies managed?
- Hoe does technological fiction in literature, film and media shape diffusion?
