Why do most of the sci-fi flicks look dystopian in nature? Every imaginable future scenario looks like a Black Mirror episode. This podcast is an attempt to speculate the future in a positive way through design dialogues. This podcast will engage with futurists, designers, field specialists and experiential experts. For the second season, we are focusing on founders creating utopian science fiction (white-mirror) technologies creating a dent in the society with their views, vision and actions.
