The Public Portal to Anticipation (P2A) is an ambitious collaboration between the Laboratory for Experimental Museology (eM+) and the Geneva Science and Diplomacy Anticipator (GESDA) to transform how the public engages with and contributes to complex scientific knowledge.
The goal of P2A is to create a paradigmatic software platform that empowers diverse communities to explore, visualize, and co-create speculative futures based on GESDA’s expansive knowledge base. This heterogeneous data set covers major global scientific breakthroughs expected in the next 5, 10, and 25 years – advances that will significantly impact our humanity, society, and the sustainability of our planet.
Through immersive, interactive displays, P2A transcends barriers of language, culture, and expertise. Visitors can select parameters like Domain of Impact, emotion, and time period to generate unique, AI-powered visualizations that join a collaborative canvas of future scenarios.
This co-creative experience encourages citizens, experts, diplomats, and impact amplifiers to collectively anticipate the world to come.
P2A harnesses the power of generative AI, data visualization, and user-generated content to bridge the gap between science and the wider public. By democratizing access to complex knowledge systems, this pioneering project seeks to fuel our collective imagination and empower everyone to be active participants in shaping the future.
