Europarama

What if a tinder-like app would replace elections? What if the European Union would be left as the only entity to prevent anarchy in the continent? Marije Martens, co-founder of Are We Europe, hosts this special episode for the mid of the series. We celebrate a year from the publication of DISCO SOUR and we dwelve into the universe created by Giuseppe Porcaro for his book.

Anja Kümmel joins Europarama from Germany and we imagine a deep future Europe were two societies will live completely sealed off from each other. Would they ever interact or clash?

Joana Bértholo and Giuseppe Porcaro imagine a Europe where a hundred years from now geography has changed, the sea level has risen and a network of floating cities dominates what once was known as the Mediterranean sea.

What if 1950s England would conquer the whole continental Europe? What if a pan-european railway line and an appartment block would be independent states? Giuseppe Porcaro speaks with Dave Hutchinson, from UK. Dave is the author of the four books of the Fractured Europe Series and one of the other few authors that has put an imaginative European background so prominent in science fiction worldbuilding. 

Joost Vandecasteele and Giuseppe Porcaro Imagine a future where the Capital of the European Union moves to Budapest, leaving Brussels with a wasteland of empty offices which will be re-used in a very peculiar way.

Inspired by Ernst Bloch's The Principle of Hope, Giuseppe Porcaro and Emmi Itäranta imagine a utopian future for Europe. How things would look like if the European Union would discover a new source of clean and limitless energy?

Inspired by Isaac Asimov’s visit to the New York World’s Fair of 1964, Giuseppe Porcaro and Loranne Vella imagine a fictional Europe in 2064. What would that future would look like?
