Futurism

[close] This global discussion group has been designed to encourage debates about important and underreported issues of our era. All you need is an enquiring mind and a desire to gain or share “underground knowledge”. This is also a place to discuss the controversial topics explored in The Underground Knowledge Series (non-fiction books) by James Morcan & Lance Morcan as well as the Underground Knowledge podcast show.

[close] **SPOILER ALERT** The book 'The Ministry of the Future' by Kim Stanley Robinson, (whom we may more commonly reference as KSR or Stan) is a speculative cli-fi book about the very near future, challenges and solutions we will be encountering there. This group will consist almost completely of spoilers! We will try to remember to label the topics with the header *SPOILER* and then the CHAPTER(S) that are being spoiled. You may want to read the book before you visit this club, or follow along carefully for the technicals and policy wonkery we'll be sharing here. We will endeavor to provide links and media that is understandable and comprehensive. This will be a spoiler heavy group but is mostly aimed at real comprehension of concepts, processes, etc. Please label new topics and include the warning *SPOILER*. Have fun talking and learning about what it will take and how we're not all completely, necessarily doomed!!!

[close] A place to discuss all the unique aspects of Deaf culture as highlighted in the thriller Silent Fear (A novel inspired by true crimes) by Lance & James Morcan. This group can also be an intersection of sorts where Deaf and hearing people can engage and learn from each other.

[close] Complimentary to face-to-face group that focuses on deepening our understanding of future trends, positive and negative, fictive or real.
