Join the Augmented Society Network and unlock your creative potential.

Most people don’t think they are very creative. Often, only artists or marketing agencies, to name a few, think they ‘are’ creative. The Augmented Society Network wants to change that, or at least give you the time and space to think that it is possible to think outside the box. Through this workshop you will learn about Science Fiction Design Intelligence (Sci.Fi. D.I) and how to not just unlock your creative potential but how to actualize it.

This introductory workshop is an hour of joyful and mind-challenging moment where you will push your mind and soul to imagine a future in year 2057. We are also looking to recruit people for a full two-hour workshop, later, as part of the Augmented Society Network's ‘Creativity offers us a new formula for life project’.  

This event is a condensed introduction to using Sci.Fi. D.I., developed by Singularity University.  

More information on this event:

  • Carlos will introduce “Sci.Fi. D.I”
  • Q&A
  • Participants will experience Sci.Fi. D.I as an exciting way of unleashing their otherwise untapped creativity

Join the Augmented Society Network to discuss:

  • Learn about Sci.Fi. D.I to release your creative self
  • Work on a draft vision, using social futurology
  • Give you a stronger sense that you can be authentic and creative

About this session's lead and facilitator: Carlos Largacha-Martínez, Ph.D., TEDx, FRSA is a quantic humanist and social futurist. Carlos is also a visiting research Fellow with Fulbright-MinCiencias-Areandina.
