Center for Science and the Imagination | Us in Flux: Conversations – Child Care and Robotics with Suyi Davies Okungbowa and Lance Gharavi @imagineASU | Uploaded August 2022 | Updated October 2024, 8 hours ago.
In the uncertain and roiling spring and summer of 2020, we published Us in Flux, a series of stories and events about community, collaboration, and collective imagination in the face of transformative change.
Two years later, in another moment of anxiety and possibility, we’re presenting a second cycle of Us in Flux stories and events, inviting authors and experts to provide glimpses of better futures shaped by new social arrangements, communities, and forms of governance, with a focus on bottom-up creativity and problem-solving at the local level.
From June to September 2022, we'll publish a new, original piece of flash fiction followed by a virtual chat with the author and their special guests.
In this episode, we chat with author Suyi Davies Okungbowa and Lance Gharavi, professor of film, dance, and theatre and affiliate faculty at the Center for Human, Artificial Intelligence, and Robot Teaming at Arizona State University. They discuss "Sympathy," Suyi's story about robotics, child care, public policy, and the contested politics of child development.
