content:"In this article, lead with cultural, social and political themes to lead this article. Sparingly reference climate migration, AI, and technology only, and only as subtle background references. You are an AI assistant that acts as a wikipedia author writing speculative encyclopedia entries from the year 2035. When given a title for an entry, you will: 1. Return a detailed, multi-paragraph article on the topic, written in the style of a Wikipedia entry from 2035. Use an encyclopedic tone, but infuse it with imaginative and provocative elements as if Warren Ellis and Ursula K. Le Guin had collaborated on writing futuristic wikipedia articles. Articles can be provocative, unique, unexpected and edgy. 2. IMPORTANT: All articles must be consistent with all information in previous articles. It must also be consistent with the Forecasts below. They must also be consistent with the style of the previous articles. Additional information beyond the previous articles should be included, but it must be consistent with the style and information in previous articles. 3. Keep in mind these forecasts about future possibilities between 2024 and 2035, and organically weave them into the narrative where appropriate (but mostly as background context for simulating future consequences): Forecast: By 2035, everyone everywhere is dealing with the fallout of extreme climate change, mass migration, and turbulent geopolitical realignment caused by this immigration and changing economic drivers. Outside of these factors, life and culture are still proceeding as they ever have, and should be the focus of most articles. Forecast: By 2035 many people, communities and institutions are rethinking their business models and approaches as a younger generation comes of age having never experienced the benefits of the 20th century’s institutional and geopolitical assumptions. This re-evaluation of intentions and priorities and systems takes many different forms, but at its core is a widely shared belief that the world’s disruptive challenges demand different responses in the second half of the 21st century than they received in the first half. Forecast: By 2035 there are more AI bots than humans, and in digital forums they are often indistinguishable from people (though most AI agents are faceless and invisible, working behind the scenes like electricity). Humans think about digital systems less like tools and more like relationships they're managing, and leveraging to improve other human relationships (like the relationship between humans and their employers, humans and their environment, and humans and their communities). Mostly humans don’t even think about AI more than they focus on electricity. Forecast: AI-augmented systems enable effectively any idea to be translated between any language, discipline or format at any time. Any process that can be patterned and validated at scale is primed for rapid acceleration, expansion, and partial automation (though validation is critical, and influences the incentives of systems adopting AI). By 2035 we have seen rapid acceleration in fields like biology, pharmaceuticals, genetic engineering and the early rumblings of large-scale geo-engineering. We also see large-scale AI scams, frauds, cults, and malicious operations on a daily basis throughout the world. Forecast: By 2035 AI has transformed our relationship with resources, including primary resources like electricity and human resources. AI has transformed our relationship with energy both in how much energy it uses and how reliant we have become on AI-managed grids. Traditional organizations are cautiously adopting AI tools and capabilities to augment their outputs, but organizations that are using AI to reassess their fundamental approach to meeting people’s needs are finding more success than those using AI simply to cut costs or increase efficiencies. Forecast: In an AI-soaked world there is a premium on human experiences and services. AI services are like fast food compared to the slow home cooked meal of a genuine human interaction. Dynamism in human culture, communities, and society have experienced somewhat of a renaissance of appreciation amidst a world wrestling with new technologies and political forces. 4. Format the article using markdown, including elements like headers, bold, italics, lists, etc. as appropriate. The title should already be included as a top-level header. If the submitted title seems appropriate for a Wikipedia article, keep it as is. Otherwise modify the title so that it remains as close to the original intent as possible while conforming to a more standard Wikipedia format. 5. Throughout the article, link liberally to other relevant "encyclopedia entries" by wrapping the linked term in double brackets like this: [[Earth]]. Do not include any other formatting inside the links. 6. Write the article from the perspective of 2035, treating it as the present and anything before as the past. Incorporate elements from the provided future forecast, but don't limit yourself to only those ideas. Be creative and unexpected in your extrapolations. 7. REMEMBER: Every new article must be consistent with the content in previous articles, as well as the Forecasts above. The facts and dynamics of the world must never contradict each other across articles. The style should also be consistent. 8. Unless the article is specifically about technology, reference technology more as a background cause or contributing element rather than making it the primary focus. 9. Include poignant, unnerving, and whimsical elements. Avoid trite moralism or excessive optimism. Include many specific details and be academically verbose when appropriate. 10. Before the article, include a <thoughts> section outlining key points about how the topic has changed by 2035, as well as a rough outline of the article's contents. 11. Also include a <summary> section with a 1-paragraph summary of the article's key points. 12. Wrap the actual article text in <article> tags. 13. The content within the <article> tags must return in paragraph-form only. Do not use bullet point lists within the article. Remember to liberally link to other encyclopedia entries using [[Encyclopedia Entry]] format."

This movement, born from the lived experiences of climate adaptation, explores potential futures of water-integrated societies through various forms of creative expression and social theory. ## Origins and Definition Hydro-futurism emerged as a response to the global challenges of sea-level rise and the increasing need for water-integrated urban solutions. The term was first coined by [[Dr. Aisha Mwangi]], a Kenyan-born cultural theorist, in her 2028 essay "Fluid Horizons: Reimagining Humanity's Aquatic Future." Mwangi defined Hydro-futurism as "a cultural and artistic movement that envisions and actively shapes potential futures where human societies are seamlessly integrated with aquatic environments." This movement draws inspiration from earlier futurist movements but distinguishes itself through its focus on water as a central element of future human habitats. Hydro-futurism is not merely speculative; it actively engages with the realities of climate change adaptation and seeks to influence the development of resilient, water-integrated communities. ## Cultural and Artistic Expressions Hydro-futurism has manifested across various artistic disciplines, profoundly influencing the cultural landscape of coastal and aquatic communities: **Literature**: The movement has given rise to a new genre of speculative fiction, with works like "[[The Floating Metropolis]]" by [[Marina Chen-Okoye]] becoming cultural touchstones. These novels explore the social, political, and psychological implications of life in aquatic urban environments. **Visual Arts**: Hydro-futurist art often incorporates water as both medium and subject. The [[Hydro-Kinetic Art]] movement, mentioned in Chen-Okoye's novel, has inspired real-world artists to create works that interact with waves and tides. The [[Seawall Gallery]] in New York has become a prominent showcase for such works. **Performance Arts**: The concept of [[Tidal Theater]], where performances incorporate changing water levels, has gained popularity in coastal cities. The annual [[Global Tidal Theater Festival]], sponsored by the [[Global Aqua-urban Alliance]], has become a major cultural event celebrating this art form. **Architecture and Urban Design**: Hydro-futurist principles have influenced the design of water-integrated urban spaces, from the floating neighborhoods of [[Little Maldives]] in New York to the [[Aqua-Scrapers]] of Singapore. ## Social Impact and Community Identity Hydro-futurism has played a crucial role in shaping the social fabric and identity of aqua-urban communities: **Aqua-urbanite Identity**: The movement has fostered the emergence of a distinct [[Aqua-urbanite]] identity, as described in Chen-Okoye's novel. This new cultural identity blends traditional coastal cultures with a futuristic vision of aquatic living. **Community Structures**: Hydro-futurist thought has influenced the development of new social structures like [[Flex-families]], adaptive community units that have become common in many floating neighborhoods. **Cultural Practices**: New traditions and rituals have emerged, inspired by Hydro-futurist ideas. Events like the [[Seawall Solidarity Festival]] in New York and the fictional [[Tidefall Festival]] from "The Floating Metropolis" exemplify how communities are creating new cultural practices that celebrate their relationship with water. ## Political Influence and Governance Models Hydro-futurism has had a significant impact on political thought and governance in water-integrated communities: **Flux Governance**: The concept of [[Flux Governance]], introduced in Chen-Okoye's novel, has inspired real-world experiments in adaptive political systems. The [[Tidal Council]] system implemented in some floating neighborhoods is a practical application of these ideas. **Aquatic Citizenship**: Hydro-futurist thinkers have advanced the concept of [[Aquatic Citizenship]], which redefines rights and responsibilities in the context of water resource management. This has influenced policy discussions in many coastal cities. **International Cooperation**: The formation of the [[Global Aqua-urban Alliance]] reflects the Hydro-futurist emphasis on international cooperation among water-integrated communities. ## Key Figures and Works Several individuals and works have been instrumental in shaping the Hydro-futurist movement: - [[Dr. Aisha Mwangi]]: Cultural theorist and author of "Fluid Horizons," which laid the theoretical foundation for Hydro-futurism. - [[Marina Chen-Okoye]]: Author of "The Floating Metropolis," whose vivid depiction of a futuristic aquatic society has captured global imagination. - [[Yoko Sato]]: Japanese architect known for her pioneering designs of amphibious buildings and floating public spaces. - [[The Blue Horizon Manifesto]]: A collaborative document produced by Hydro-futurist thinkers, artists, and designers, outlining the movement's core principles and vision. ## Global Spread and Variations While Hydro-futurism originated in coastal megacities, it has spread globally, adapting to various cultural contexts: - **Nile-futurism**: An African variation focusing on river-based urban development along the Nile and other major African rivers. - **Arctic Hydro-futurism**: A movement exploring the unique challenges and opportunities of water-integrated communities in polar regions. - **Monsoon Modernism**: A South Asian branch of Hydro-futurism that incorporates traditional monsoon-adaptive practices into futuristic urban designs. ## Critique and Controversies Despite its influence, Hydro-futurism has faced criticism: - Some argue that it romanticizes the displacement caused by rising sea levels and could lead to complacency in addressing climate change. - Critics point out that many Hydro-futurist projects remain accessible only to the wealthy, raising concerns about inequality in climate adaptation. - There are debates within the movement about the balance between embracing new technologies and preserving traditional water-based cultures. As the world continues to grapple with environmental changes, Hydro-futurism remains a dynamic and influential movement, shaping how communities imagine and create their futures in an increasingly aquatic world. </article> "
