Anticipatory Biographies reimagines the practice of scenario writing through sixteen speculative life stories set 20–40 years in the future. Drawing from design fiction, anticipation studies and futures research, the book envisions a world transformed by artificial intelligence, automation, climate change and political fragmentation. Rather than focusing on impersonal macro-forces, each story centers on the lived experience of an individual—from climate refugees and enhanced athletes to AI artists and eco-prosecutors. Each biography explores how individuals—across cultures, classes, and circumstances—live within, shape, or resist these sweeping changes. Anticipatory Biographies rejects monolithic futures, demonstrating that tomorrow's world will be simultaneously utopian and dystopian depending on who experiences it.
