Bart Schols & Karel Van Mileghem

Bart Schols and Karel Van Mileghem join forces for a performance brimming with imagination, existential questions, and humor that will forever change your perspective on the future. In *Afspraak met de Toekomst* (Appointment with the Future), they explore the big questions of our time: Where are we, as human beings, headed?

Bart Schols has been the face of De Afspraak on Canvas for years. A psychologist by training, a sharp interviewer by nature. He knows better than anyone how to present complex themes in a clear and human way. Karel Van Mileghem is a TV producer, musician, and producer. He won an Ensor Award for his VRT series Het Leven In Kleur. Together, they engaged in conversation with the sharpest minds of our time—historians, scientists, philosophers, and futurists from all corners of the world—to understand where we come from and where we are headed.

In the span of a hundred years, humanity has made the greatest evolutionary leap in its history. From horse and cart to roving robots on Mars. From incandescent filaments to quantum computers. Technology is rapidly taking over our intelligence. But what is our place as humans in all of this? Our minds and bodies thrive on slow, natural change. We took thousands of years for small evolutionary leaps. And now? In less than a single generation, the world has changed its form four times over.
