The future is Brian David
Johnson's business. As a futurist he works with organizations to develop an
actionable 10 -15 year vision and what it will feel like to live in the future.
His work is called futurecasting, using ethnographic field studies, technology
research, cultural history, trend data, global interviews and even science
fiction to provide a pragmatic road map of the future. As an applied futurist
Johnson has worked with governments, trade organizations, start-ups and multinational
corporations to not only help envision their future but specify the steps
needed to get there. Johnson is currently the futurist in residence at
Arizona State University’s Center for Science and the Imagination, a
professor in the School for the Future of Innovation in Society and the
Director of the ASU Threatcasting Lab. He is also a Futurist and Fellow
at Frost and Sullivan.
Johnson speaks and writes
extensively in ongoing columns for IEEE
Computer Magazine and Successful Farming where he is the
"Farm Futurist”. He has contributed articles to publications like
The Wall Street Journal, Slate, and Wired Magazine. Johnson
holds over 40 patents and is the best-selling author of both science fiction
and fact books (WaR: Wizards and Robots, 21st Century Robot and Science
Fiction Prototyping). He was appointed first futurist ever at the Intel
Corporation in 2009 where he worked for over a decade helping to design over 2
billion microprocessors.
Johnson appears
regularly on Bloomberg TV, PBS, FOX News, and the Discovery Channel and has
been featured in Scientific American, The Technology Review, Forbes, INC, and
Popular Science. He has directed two feature films and is an illustrator
and commissioned painter. In 2016 Samuel
Goldwyn released "Vintage Tomorrows” a documentary based upon
Johnson's book of the same name.
