The Future is Not Lost by Matt Bluemink

A book launch and talk for "The Future is Not Lost: On Music, Technology, and the Creation of New Worlds" by Matt Bluemink, held in the Studio at the Institute of Contemporary Arts. Bluemink, a writer and philosopher and editor-in-chief of Blue Labyrinths magazine, presents the key ideas of his new book, with the talk moderated by theorist Alessandro Sbordoni. He argues, drawing on artists like SOPHIE, Arca and Iglooghost and on thinkers such as Bernard Stiegler and Gilbert Simondon, that the future has not disappeared but still speaks through music. The presentation and discussion are followed by a Q&A session.
