Radio producer Joe Richman will accompany science journalist Caty Enders’s project, Forever, to completion. The radio podcast and immersive installation will delve into the various biotech and AI breakthroughs backed by Silicon Valley aimed at achieving immortality on the one hand, and the reality of the decline in life expectancy in the United States on the other hand due to record levels of chronic disease, suicide, and addiction.

Richman said: “I had the honor of working with three mentees who presented important and beautifully told projects that all pushed the boundaries of art and journalism. It was an incredibly difficult decision to choose just one. I have selected Enders’s project, Forever, in which she’s looking to explore the science of living longer through a human lens. Her project is ambitious and fun and valuable, and it raises questions that are universal. I am excited to be a mentor for this project.”

The two sat down at the end of the Forecast Forum to discuss their next steps.
