In today's podcast we delve into two different projects that engage with the theme of imagined futures. We hear first from Dr Monica Degen who introduces us to London's largest cultural regeneration project, the 'Cultural Mile', which involves the relocation of the Museum of London to West Smithfield Market. We then turn to John Wylie who discusses 'The Common Line' project, which aims to plant a line of trees, both physical and digital, across mainland Britain. These two cases reflect the ways futures are envisioned and imagined. Speakers: Dr Monica Degen (Brunel University), Professor John Wylie (University of Exeter), Adam Michael Packer (School of Geography and the Environment, University of Oxford)
