"Lecture Introduction

Futurology and Future Arts.
--Space, Biology, Robotics and Metaverse Art

Through this lecture, we will share the definition, type, value and historical background of future art, and try to explore the criteria of value judgment from five elements: medium, technology, language, symbol, and concept, and to recognize the trend of future art development in relation to contemporary art. The lecturer calls it "future artology". The content of the lecture presupposes the trends of the near-future technological art (digital virtual, biochemical mutation, artificial bionic, physical transformation fields) and the new ethical, temporal, and thinking changes that will be brought to us. The content of the future art shared in this session focuses on the concepts, types, characteristics and implications of the cutting-edge space, artificial intelligence, biological and metaverse art for the future world in various fields. The metaverse and the original universe are not opposites; the former expands inward, the latter extends outward, and eventually develop together in different ways. The metaverse should not bring about civilizational involution and eventually civilizational change. Digital virtual technology and space and biotechnology, in fact, complement each other. Virtual and real worlds need to build consensus values while resolving cultural and ethical conflicts.
