winning idea for Red Bull Futur/io

Watch it below

GLOBAL WINNER FUTUR I/O 2019

CRISTIAN-ALEXANDRU IOAN

Cristian-Alexandru’s original idea, ‘We All Share The Same Dreams, But’, envisioned a future built on equality, where people’s feelings are directly transferrable to energy. Developing his vision throughout the four-day academy, he focused his final pitch on the topic of ‘Human Emotions as a New Renewable Energy Source’, exploring his idea further and how it could create a desirable future for humanity.

The idea was selected to be made into a Red Bull Media House production due to the imagination behind his concept for the future which depicts a paradigm shift in how we, as humans, see ourselves.

Ultimately, it communicates the fact that there is no greater resource for our planet than what’s already on it.
