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.

Little Dream
I imagine a better future, made up of general well-being, and more wealth for people, more social aid for the weakest categories. The government must increase security in cities to avoid crime, if there is more well-being for people crime also decreases. I imagine a better environment, a cleaner city, and more care and respect for the environment.

Reimagining Earth: A Sustainable Future
In 2040, I would love to see significant progress in sustainability, particularly in the way we handle waste and consumption. Imagine a future where cities are zero-waste, and all resources are continually reused or repurposed. Every product would be designed with its entire lifecycle in mind—no more planned obsolescence or single-use plastic. Instead, everything would be made from materials that are either biodegradable or completely recyclable. Waste would be a thing of the past, as we’d have efficient, accessible systems in place to compost organic matter and recycle materials into new products. Food production would also be more sustainable, with urban farming and vertical gardens providing fresh, local produce, reducing the need for long-distance transportation. This future would have less pollution, cleaner air, and more green spaces in urban areas, as cities would prioritize nature-based solutions. People would have access to affordable renewable energy, and we’d rely on clean, efficient technologies for transportation, minimizing carbon footprints. It’s a future where the Earth’s resources are valued, and the way we live is in harmony with nature. The changes would create healthier communities, reduced environmental impact, and a better quality of life for all.

Rêve d'avenir meilleur
In 2040, I can't believe my eyes. Europe has recovered from a purely economic community to a common political and strategic functioning. The awakening of citizens has worked from the ground up, through individual and collective initiatives of change in view of the climate that is still deteriorating but slowing down thanks to new territorial developments. Barter and aid have once again become everyday activities: We lend, we give, we praise what we have in exchange for what we do not have.
