Impressions of the Aral Sea Workshop: No Culture In A Dry World

In the summer of 2023, a group of scientists (including Mi You and Yulia Gromova) travelled to the Karakalpak region in Uzbekistan. One event of that trip was the workshop "The Future that Will Have Been", aiming to create science-fictional scenarios for the future of the region in light of the region's history and ecological circumstances. A report on the workshop can now be read in issue 138 of ArtAsiaPacific: In his essay "No Culture In A Dry World", Hutch Wilco writes about his impressions during the workshop.
