 The Neville-Thomas family subscribe to a sustainable, resilient way of life where they grow their own food, fish locally, raise chickens and work closely with local natural resources. At Adhocracy we will explore speculative cli-fi scenarios, document dialogues with farmers and fishers, develop digital stories and sound scores, conduct pop-up future forecasting and other cultural interventions within the Adhocracy event, cook, tend to plants, look after their children and conduct artist talks about the diverse facets of this cultural endeavour.  The Neville-Thomas family subscribe to a sustainable, resilient way of life where they grow their own food, fish locally, raise chickens and work closely with local natural resources.

 +Today we are preparing to bump in our scenario world to the Waterside Workers Hall in Port Adelaide tomorrow. Matt is preparing the herbs and vegetables growing in our glass house, fermenting ginger beer and kombucha, pickling tomato relish and packing up quince paste and pickled tuna. Sarah is packing up things to kit out the domestic interior incuding Miranda's paints and Florence's toys. Whilst Miranda has made an arguement to take the broody hen with her seven new chicks with us. 
 +
 +At this point in time we have sketched out activities for us to do with the children and with visitors over the four days. We realise that this residency will be foccussed on being in the scenario and doing things, as having the children with us means any computer based research or long adult discussions would be very difficult. This is our opportunity to see how things play out in practice.
