In this episode of the Futurized podcast, host Trond Arne Undheim interviews Dana Klisanin, a psychologist, futurist, and author. They discuss coping mechanisms for existential risk worries and events, including engaging in rewilding experiences, sensory exploration, etc. This is part of Futurized's focus on the takeaways from the third annual Stanford Existential Risks Conference and the collection of papers now issued as conference Proceedings . The past two decades have seen anthropogenic global catastrophic and existential risks (x-risks) develop into an increasingly prominent source of academic study, policy focus, and public concern. The proceedings of the third annual Stanford Existential Risks Conference present a diverse array of research by both established and emerging scholars on the past, present, and future of x-risk studies. Some papers sum up the fruits of existing approaches to existential risks, while others address their blind spots or propose potential directions for the future of x-risk studies.
