Technology, Movies, and Ethical Innovation (in-person)

A unique course that uses science fiction movies to explore socially and ethical responsible innovation from a transdisciplinary perspective. COURSE NUMBER: FIS 394 COURSE TITLE: The Moviegoer’s Guide to the Future LEVEL: Undergraduate SCHOOL: School for the Future of Innovation in Society (SFIS) INSTRUCTOR: Andrew Maynard MODE: In-person (fully virtual through ASU Sync) SYLLABUS: https://webapp4.asu.edu/bookstore/vie... SEMESTER: Spring Semester SESSION: Session C Sign up through the ASU course catalog: https://webapp4.asu.edu/catalog/ DESCRIPTION The Moviegoer’s Guide to The Future is a unique introduction to cutting edge of emerging technologies and their socially responsible and ethical development and use. Through movies like Jurassic Park, Ghost in the Shell, and Transcendence, the course explores technologies that span genetic engineering and “de-extinction”, to human enhancement, nanotechnology, and artificial intelligence. It also looks at the human side of technology innovation, from the ethics of cloning in movies like Never Let Me Go, and predictive justice in Minority Report, to the dangers of blind entrepreneurial ambition in movies like Ex Machina. And it addresses some of the really big issues in science and society that we’re facing today, such as climate change (with The Day After Tomorrow), and science and belief (through Carl Sagan’s Contact). Through these and other movies, the course dives into the increasing complex relationship between science, technology and society, and begins to unpack how, through understanding this relationship better, we can help build a better, more responsible, science and technology-based future. Definitely not a course to miss if you’re into science, technology and sci-fi, and want to make the world a better place!
