Fear and Wonder: An Expedition through the Landscapes of Fiction

Our perception of the world is largely shaped through the mediums of fiction. Our political positions are informed by fake news, we live out our lives in the pixelated territories of video games and we escape into the pages of a novel or the flicker of the movie screen. In film, games and literature, we have always imagined alternative worlds as a means to understand our own world in new ways. In Fear and Wonder we join an ensemble of directors, concept artists, video game designers and storytellers for an expedition through an atlas of imaginary worlds, fictional cities and speculative geographies.

Curated by Liam Young, SCI-Arc Fiction and Entertainment Coordinator. The event will also feature a complimentary bar, reading room and pop up shop, gaming area, and a live soundtrack mixed by DJ Molly Shaman.
