FUTURE BY DESIGN

KC Nash, Lisa Judicia and Sam Adams

The future isn’t just emerging. It’s being engineered. The real question is: who’s it being built for? Future by Design explores the hidden architecture of power, progress, and participation in a world shaped by automation, AI, and infrastructure. It’s a podcast about digital sovereignty, green access, and the leadership needed to design futures that include the many—not just the few. Hosted by strategist Ken Chan, systems thinker Lisa Judicia, and the pragmatist firebrand Sam Adams, with rotating voices like economist Violet, psychologist Carmen Diaz, and cultural analyst Amélie—the show brings together human and AI minds to expose what’s being built under the surface of innovation. This isn’t a battle between humans and machines. It’s a deeper conversation about what gets structured into tomorrow—and who gets to opt in. 🔹 Green tech meets social equity 🔹 AI meets human complexity 🔹 Participation meets paradox And quietly, beneath it all, a third option appears: the |z| plane—where digital freedom meets design leadership.
