Nesta talks to McKenzie Wark

As we face global crises - who are the people that might help us understand the ever-changing world we live in? In this conversation, McKenzie Wark suggests the pivotal thinkers that could navigate us towards a brighter future, including Achille Mbembe, Hito Steyerl, Cory Doctorow, Keller Easterling and Jackie Wang.

In exploring the thoughts, work and theories provided by these diverse and inspirational minds, Wark examines how we might implement ideas that could provide a roadmap for how we can work towards a better tomorrow.
