Think Futures is a five-day vacation-seminar and workshop aimed at providing a deeper insight into how seasoned professional foresight practitioners are able to unravel unstructured knowledge about the potential future and to discover and interpret early signals that open new gateways to breakthrough ideas.

The program will be conducted by renowned professional futurists and university educators, Derek Woodgate and Helga Veigl from The Futures Lab, Inc. (www.futures-lab.com), together with guest presenters.

Think Futures is about creating the future and provides access to a proprietary collection of proven techniques that we have developed over the past 25 years which will bring together two critical aspects of successful futures practice, namely, the art of nomadic thinking and experimental foresight.

The Art of Awe is a collection of unique foresight techniques which we present and practice during this course. These include:
The Unreality Studio
Creating discontinuous visions of the future
Data:Body:Space
A multidimensional, multi-perspective role-playing technique to transition abstract ideas into future opportunities
Think Like a DJ
Remixing creative imagination by working with the narrative spaces between the future rhythms to build futures scenarios
Living the Future
Immersive multisensory discovery and simulation of being there in the future

The program will help you to test and expand your boundaries by traveling the line between structured and indeterminate worlds. Over the five days you will learn and experiment with unorthodox, disparate approaches, tools, artifacts and environments, using real-time mashing and improvisation that ultimately generate a catalog of skills that enable you to adapt to and adopt transformative change, while imagining world-beating future opportunities.

Following the seminar and lunch, relax on the amazing beaches of the Makarska Riviera, or enjoy an afternoon of water sports or join trips to the islands of Hvar and Brač, deep sea diving and snorkelling, hiking around the Biskovo Nature Park, the Blue Lake in Imotski or the nearby remarkable 14th century Vlach monumental tombstones called stećci. Additionally there’s the potential for a post-seminar trip to Dubrovnik, Split or Mostar.

Participate in evening discussions with your peers while enjoying the best of Mediterranean delicacies and award-winning local wines on beautiful terraces overlooking the Adriatic Sea.
