Creative production

Operational by 2040. The evolution of VR, AR and 4D printing technologies and the significant reduction in their costs are paving the way for the creation of new generation ecocrafts. The creative industry at home is flourishing. Millions of projects to create objects – from customised and customised everyday equipment to immersive works of art – are ongoing in the homes of individuals or groups of people. The objects produced are sold through new-generation marketplaces, while the consumer can intervene in their production and configure them even during the creation phase, through a process of dynamic interaction with the product and the manufacturer’s digital assistant: an AI algorithm capable of assessing and managing new requests and learning alone about the specificities of potential buyers. These projects generate new income, while low production costs allow more people to access the production process. At the same time, the fact that production is spread across many different locations allows the supply of products and services within a very short radius from the consumer’s home, which reduces the cost and environmental footprint of transport. At the same time, new forms of art are being created, with works that interact with the viewer and are transformed, and a new code of ethics is being established to protect users of immersive environments from the possibility of universal immersion in virtual worlds.

In 2040, Russia broke up into smaller states and China became a democracy. Prior to this, Russia has been at war, which has led to increased readiness and small border thorns also near the Finnish border. The World War could be avoided. Europe has been able to lighten the regulation that suppresses innovation, and the benefits of the common market have brought new prosperity to the whole region. Space tourism is still a utopia, but we dream of it. Artificial intelligence has reduced the need for labour, just like computers or the internet used to. The pain in society is that the top performers do well, but the less capable have fewer and fewer job opportunities and become passive. However, for political reasons, basic income has not been reached and there is a lot of this in the newspapers. Immigration has decreased and demographic trends have stabilised. The famine in Africa raises concerns and climate change puts pressure on population movements. The threat of war in the South is obvious. In the midst of the threats, I feel that already towards the end of my career I am financially safe thanks to entrepreneurship and hard work, and my children are doing well in a changed world. The future does not seem unproblematic, but disasters have, as before, been avoided.

Tempo per la famiglia
It's 2040. Today parents work only half a day, when their children are at school, and spend the rest of the day with them. They have finally acquired the right to form a family and to live it in balance with their work. Their children will enjoy the time that their parents were not allowed because of a wrong development pattern that has finally been erased.
