Strange New Work

Strange New Work

by

Lots of people are talking about the future of work today: remote work, artificial intelligence, white-collar unions, robots, 4-day workweeks… But those things are either here already or will be soon. What about the far future of work? What alien advancements await the office of the future? This podcast wants to boldly go where no other future-of-work podcast has gone. Host Tara McMullin (What Works) brings this limited series about how speculative fiction can help us imagine strange new ways of working and understanding ourselves. We’ll explore questions about how we can transform work to be more humane and inclusive. We’ll imagine new ways of working together, managing the economy, and providing for others.
