I have always aligned myself with the Italian Futurists, The Milan School of Therapy (dressed in black capes scuttling across the Piazza Mercanti heading for the Piazza del Duomo) and indeed the Luther Blisset Project.
But this is what the council leader is looking for, get your cameras out.
Your city needs you
The search is now on for one of the most exciting and unusual jobs going in Scotland. As part of the 2050 Edinburgh City Vision campaign, three inquisitive candidates will be recruited as official ‘futurists’ for the city and sent to Dublin, Copenhagen or Helsinki to research how these pioneering cities plan for their futures.
Applications are now open to residents aged 18 and over to submit a successful video entry on why they deserve to land the dream role. It is the latest move in our citywide campaign to develop an all-encompassing and inspiring City Vision for Edinburgh 2050. If you’ve already shared your vision, thank you. If not, please help us shape the Edinburgh of the future.
