Not only is Pat Kane a pop legend (as is his bandmate and brother, Greg), but he is also a futurist, curator, consultant, activist, father, and partner. He is the author of The Play Ethic and its forthcoming sequel, SUPERPLAY.

With a long and varied career in media and arts, Pat consults and speaks globally. Pat was - and is - a lead campaigner for Scottish independence, and co-initiated the political lab Alternative Global

We had such fun chatting with Pat; we hope you enjoy it, too.
