Science Fiction is about building worlds and seeing the human perspective alongside visions of the future, different universes or new technology. Science Fiction can be a huge and sprawling genre, so we learn to find out which strand we are playing in and hone in on the style at play.
This workshop is part of the Project 2×2 mini-festival, putting together workshops and shows by Chris and Katy.
