The BFI in London is hosting a study day on architectural visions in sci-fi cinema this Saturday. Building Brave New Worlds includes presentations, screenings and discussions with experts and practitioners, exploring the fertile two-way traffic of ideas between sci-fi cinema and architecture, urbanism and planning.
