What piece of pop culture has the most interesting notion of what the future might look and feel like, design-wise?
Nicholas Desbiens: Star Wars.
Dong-Ping Wong: David Bowie generally.
Scott Thrift: The new Whitney Museum.
Liz Danzico: Spike Jonze’s Her.
Justin Nagelberg: I just saw the film Ex Machina, and I really, really liked their idea of what a future house might look like. I love how the home in the film blends the beauty of the natural landscape into the architecture of the home environment while also integrating lots of new technology. I also really liked the vision of the future in the movie Her. I think the thing that stood out for me about that film was how naturally the technology blended into the lifestyles of the characters. … Also the fashion was really cool!
Emily Fischer: Citizen Four.
Matthew Waldman: Most recently, the film Ex Machina was very spot on and presented a future sexiness that was strangely aspirational. As for sound, the independent artist EMIKA makes some awesome sounds that keep me in my future-mode.
Pavan Bapu: Minority Report.
Jamina Grase: Pop culture scares me.
