Abstract

 

 This paper is an exploration into future imaginaries of heat. In May 2022, Elisabeth and Jorge, the authors of the paper, met Juli, a heat researcher, who invited them into a time travel to a future world where and when heat is at the core of public life. In their imaginary journey they travel across three different loops, each of them increasingly hotter. In their travel they encounter multiple knowledges and technologies that future citizens of the world have invented and developed to cope with and mitigate heat, and they somehow experience them.
