Future Shock review: Dramatic but forgettable installations

Daydream V.6 by Nonotak Studio

(Picture: )

There’s a strand in contemporary culture that I find difficult to place, and much of it is on display in Future Shock.

It’s a kind of installation art in that it fills rooms with singular environments, but it’s also a bit like an intervention in a club or even a kind of techno-funfair. It often involves light and music, almost always ambient and/or electronica. Much of it is impressive technically, using software to create generative, immersive experiences that are unique to each visitor.
