Title: How does technology create society?
Status: confirmed
Proposed by: Stephanie Bateman-Graham
Description:
Good science fiction is not just about gadgets and technology, but how technology changes people and society. Technology has a life-cycle from emerging to established, and show-don't-tell writing can reveal how far along a technology has come. How has society has been altered? Who has it? Who can afford it? How has the technology affected crime, romance, travel, death, families, religion, and sport?
