Technical imaginaries have since also been translated into national st rategies to enter the “4th industrial revolution”, such as “Malaysia 4wrd” (building on “Horison 2020” / “Wawasan 2020”), “Thailand 4.0” or “Making In donesia 4.0”. These political visions and strategies are widely embraced as future-oriented development plans. But we also find critical perspectives on (imagined) effects of modernization, mechanization, and mediatization in a variety of artistic examinations, contributing to public discourses and imaginaries on living conditions in TechnoEnvironments. These, in turn, are widely circulated and communicated via new media technologies, creating ev er more mediatized TechnoEnvironments in Southeast Asia. \n\nIn this panel, we analyze the diverse imaginaries of TechnoEnvironments as part of discou rses and future orientations in Southeast Asia. This includes different act ors and drivers in the creation and pluralization of creative, argumentativ e, and narrative discourses but also the content and form of imaginaries, w hich are also subject to change in emerging TechnoEnvironments. The panel s eeks to investigate these interrelated thematic areas from various discipli nary perspectives within Southeast Asian Studies.
