SUMMARY:Green New Deal @NYC
DESCRIPTION:The Green New Deal: Shaping A Public Imagination with Kim Stanley Robinson \nFebruary 18 @ 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm EST  \nBrown Institute at Columbia 2950 Broadway\, New York\, NY 10027 \n\n\nCan climate fiction help overcome political friction? \nWhen climate change is the focus of both fiction and nonfiction\, dystopia tends to rule. It’s not hard to see why\, given that 30 years of efforts to push past fossil fuels have barely shifted the global energy mix and impacts on humans and nature mount as vulnerable communities encounter off-the-charts climate extremes. A notable exception is the prize-winning work of Kim Stanley Robinson\, one of the planet’s most lauded living novelists of science fiction—and one who builds sweeping visions of profoundly altered\, but functioning\, civilizations on (and off) a deeply disrupted planet. \nIn a rare stop at Columbia\, Robinson will shift his focus to the present and speak on shaping public imaginations toward an embrace the Green New Deal\, released one year ago. \nHe’ll then have a climate conversation with the audience; Kate Wagner\, architecture critic at the New Republic and contributor to Curbed\, The Atlantic\, and other publications; and Dr. Maureen Raymo\, a paleoceanographer at Columbia’s Earth Institute who studies the history of climate change and sea level rise. The moderator will be Andrew Revkin\, who’s been writing on global warming since the 1980s and is now directing a new Earth Institute initiative on communication and sustainability.\n \n\nEvent page

SUMMARY:Three Californias omnibus publication
DESCRIPTION:THREE CALIFORNIAS \nTor Books\nTor/Forge\nOn Sale: 02/18/2020\nISBN: 9781250307569\n848 Pages \n\n\nThe brilliant sf trilogy (The Wild Shore\, The Gold Coast\, Pacific Edge) that launched the career of international bestseller Kim Stanley Robinson\, author of Red Mars and 2312. \nBefore Kim Stanley Robinson terraformed Mars\, he wrote three science fiction novels set in Orange County\, California\, where he grew up. These alternate futures—one a post-apocalypse\, one an if-this-goes-on future reminiscent of Philip K. Dick\, and one an ecological utopia—form a whole that illuminates\, enchants\, and inspires. \nThe Wild Shore was nominated for the Philip K. Dick Award\, and won the Locus Award for Best First Novel. Ursula K. Le Guin hailed it as “A fresh wind blowing”. The second of the trilogy\, The Gold Coast\, is a manic\, savage look at the craziness of technology out of control. The third\, Pacific Edge\, is a Utopia\, where humanity tries to live in harmony with the natural world\, but greed is still a force\, and hearts still break. Pacific Edge won the John W. Campbell Award for Best Novel. \nWith a new introduction by Francis Spufford\, bestselling author of Golden Hill.​\n \n\nLink

SUMMARY:Worlds of UKL @Bay Area Book Festival
DESCRIPTION:Bay Area Book Festival1569 Solano Ave. #635\nBerkeley\, CA 94707 \n\n\nWorlds of Ursula K. Le Guin: Film and Conversation \nSaturday\, May 4 | 7:00 PM – 9:30 PM \nArwen Curry\, Annalee Newitz\, Kim Stanley Robinson\, David Streitfeld\, moderated by Charlie Jane Anders \n“Resistance and change often begin in art. Very often in our art\, the art of words\,” said Ursula K. Le Guin in her courageous speech upon receiving the 2014 American National Book Foundation Medal. (She called for literary freedom and condemned unbridled capitalism.) Le Guin’s impact on literature can hardly be overstated. Our tribute to Le Guin\, who died last year at 88\, will start by screening the recent documentary about her life\, “Worlds of Ursula K. Le Guin.” A conversation will follow with Arwen Curry\, the filmmaker; Annalee Newitz\, journalist and author most recently of the novel “Autonomous”; Kim Stanley Robinson\, Le Guin’s friend and sci-fi legend; and David Streitfeld\, reporter and author of the new compilation “Ursula K. Le Guin: The Last Interview and Other Conversations.”\n \n\nEvent page

SUMMARY:Panel at SF MoMA
DESCRIPTION:The Redirect: Technology after Capitalism \nApril 25th\, 2019 7-8PM \nSan Francisco Museum of Modern Art\, Phyllis Wattis Theater\n151 Third Street San Francisco\, CA 94103 \n\n\nA collaboration between Public Books and SFMOMA’s Public Knowledge initiative\, this discussion explores how tech might be redirected beyond capitalism\, towards an alternative future. Could new technologies\, whether imagined or real\, point to a shared future of economic cooperation and democratic decision-making? Could new technologies prioritize addressing human needs and the greater threat of climate change? Or has history shown us that our faith in tech is misplaced—that its abuses and manipulations outweigh its potential to liberate? Referencing science fiction\, art\, design\, and beyond\, the panelists investigate the possibilities of a new technological dawn. \nPanelists: \nFinn Brunton\, assistant professor in Media\, Culture\, and Communication at NYU Steinhardt\, author of Digital Cash: The Unknown History of the Anarchists\, Utopians\, and Technologists Who Created Cryptocurrency \nKim Stanley Robinson\, writer of science fiction\, author of the trilogy Red Mars and New York 2140. \nAndrea Steves\, curator\, Museum of Capitalism \nXiaowei Wang\, designer\, developer and dreamer\, creative director at Logic Magazine. \nCaitlin Zaloom\, editor-in-chief of Public Books (moderator)\n \n\nEvent site
