Publisher's summary

This collection of provocations from the think tank Cybersalon brings together a blend of near-future speculative fiction and non-fiction commentary from leading experts in the fields of health, community, retail, and money. Together, they shine a light behind the cornerstones of our lives to reveal the unexpected and invite you to cast your critical eye on technology and its effect on society. Be prepared for warnings and inspirations from those who speculate about the future and those who make it a reality.

"The shards from a score of Black Mirrors reflecting future truths, as only fiction can." Charles Arthur, author of Social Warming: How Social Media Polarises us all

"Challenging and lively, these short stories will inspire readers to give more thought to the surprising risks and opportunities of pervasive technologies." David Wood, Futurist and author of Vital Foresight

"These stories will stop you in your tracks, make you think and spur you into action!" Jana Hlistova, Founder of The Purse, Host of The Purse Podcast

"When the Western population is lost in a fantasyland of algorithms and abstractions, the 22 tales of speculative fiction in this book are able to provide unique and subversive insights into our possible futures." Richard Barbrook, author of Imaginary Futures

"If visions are futures for the heart, here we have much heartfelt foresight into how our lives, our relationships, and our selves, are being transformed by data-fication. These futures feel personal, as they should." Tracey Follows, futurist and author of The Future of You
