We all know by now that the solutions to the poly-crisis exist. What we lack is a coherent set of narratives that show us how it could be implemented and - crucially - how we’d all feel as and when it is. This is now the single most important role of creative thinkers across all forms, from novels to poetry, song, drama, TV, movies, blogs, TikTok videos, letters to the Parish Post and conversations with the stranger we meet in the supermarket queue. If we can all create visions of a future we’d be proud to leave to the generations yet unborn, both human and more-than-human, then we can see how to get there.
Importantly, these need to be real: to start exactly where we are, not in a mythical future when everyone thinks like we do and the world is full of hope.mWe have to work with the world as it is, and map out pathways to a future people would willingly and joyfully embrace, wherever they are on the myriad political and cultural spectrums. And - because where we put our attention and energy are where we get to - we need to work towards a future that works. Pessimism is not a useful evolutionary trait and if dystopias were going to affect any kind of change in behaviour, they’d have done so by now. So what we need are Thrutopias, that walk us, step by clear, inspiring step towards a future we’d want to embrace. We can do this. We just need the road maps. Let’s make them.
- Manda Scott born and brought up in Scotland, started her professional life as a veterinary surgeon, specialising in equine neonatal intensive care. She changed to writing full time when her first novel was shortlisted for the Orange Prize, and continued until 2016, when she studied for a Masters in Regenerative Economics at Schumacher College. Since then, she has become a smallholder, a podcaster and a screenwriter. She is co-founder of Accidental Gods and Narrative Ark.
Scott came to write the four Boudica: Dreaming novels, this was as much as she knew. Her own shamanic practice pushed her to shift from writing crime to writing history and sustained her for 6 years of intense productivity, believing that if she could show who the ancestors of her lands had been, it would provide a blueprint for who the peoples not just of Britain, but of the world, could be: that the world would change. In this session, she tells the story of Boudica, of writing Boudica and explores who we might be if that last battle had gone the other way. Along the way, she explains why there aren’t knives on the wheels of the chariots, how Boudica got her name, and why pretty much all the historians are wrong in their identification of the landing place of the invasion.
