For thousands of years, people have envisioned utopias. And for as
long as our world remains imperfect, we will continue to design our
ideas for a perfect world. But why do we create utopias? What can we
learn from past utopias? How does our current existence inform our
ideas of utopia? How can defining a utopia help us evolve, empower and
unify ourselves? Can a better fantasy help us create a better reality?

Today, we see evolutions in technology and human interaction on a
daily basis, leading us down an inevitable path of change and
progress. The New Utopia is the imagined endgame of this progress, a
place that may not be perfect, but is always moving in that direction.
