Why are some futures harder to imagine, explain or understand?
We wondered too — so we built a methodology to measure how people think about future scenarios (and how much effort it takes).
🚀 Excited to share that our FutureVision paper was accepted to #CogSci2025!
Curious?👇

Fantastic discussion today in my Lang&Cognition grad seminar at UFJF! We kicked off our exploration of how human cognition shapes our thinking about the future with the Decode the Future game by Future Today @amywebb.bsky.social. The seminar is a test flight of FutureMind, my book w/ Mark Turner.
