Emerge: A Festival of Futures is a free art, science, and technology festival that explores the future in evocative ways through an annual public event. Emerge offers an imaginative look into the future, exposing the latest inventions underway at ASU and beyond, and asking how they might be shaped and adapted by society in surprising ways. By bringing together artists, scientists, humanists, designers, and other interdisciplinary perspectives, Emerge draws on ASU’s culture of rigorous exchange to create vibrant portraits of alternative futures. Since 2012, the festival has explored themes such as truth, sport, Frankenstein, and space habitation.
