Durinh April 1983, the first “Contact Conference” organised by Jim Funaro to encourage interdisciplinary speculation about what lies ahead as we enter the space age. The main event was a Cultures Of The Imagination (“COTI”) experiment, in which participants design an integrated world, alien and its way of life, and simulate contact with a future human society.
