Abstract
In the coming decades, new technologies will change our lives and the way in which we perceive them in hitherto unimaginable ways.Future Design is acreative collusion of science, technology and art– an experimental laboratory for new art forms and perspectives on the social impact of technologies within Europe.Future Design explores the future of digital technology from atoms to bits and from bits back to atoms again, highlighting the ways in which these technologies are adapted in different cultural contexts. The chief objective is to attract widespread attention to these technologies, to generate debates and interest in their use among independent artists and otherwise under-represented groups.Future Design provides new and critical views on imagination and new insights into reality.In view of the risks and possible collateral damage connected to these new technologies, scientist and artist must make a stand for their values, and do so by openly discussing the potential and risks, and by formulating a vision for the Earth and BEYOND.

Summary
We have to examine in ART, DESIGN and THINKING what might happen to the world when the old myths are coupled with new godlike technologies such as artificial intelligence and genetic engineering. Much of what will happen in the thirty years is driven by technological trends that are already in motion —virtual reality in the home to an ondemand economy to artificial intelligence embedded in everything we manufacture— can be understood as Kevin Kelly sees it as the result of a few long-term, accelerating forces: interacting, cognifying, flowing, screening, accessing, sharing, filtering, remixing, tracking, and questioning These larger forces will revolutionize the way we learn, work, buy, and communicate with each other. It will act as a laboratory and an observatory on art, science and new uses of the latest digital technologies, promoting the role artists play in the anticipation of social change and making the future technologies democratically accessible to individuals around the world. Art is not the biggest driving force towards the future, like technology and science, but could become a leading force on critical thinking, social change and transformation
