FutureForward: ScotiaBank Nuit Blanche at OCAD University October 1, 2011

OCAD University celebrates its 135th anniversary by looking backward into the future. Poised to nurture creative thinkers with a forward-thinking outlook, we commemorate that visionary spirit by reflecting on what was and what could be. The installations and film screenings in this group exhibition reclaim an imaginative realm once reserved for fantasy as they negotiate technology’s integration into the fabric of society. These sci-fi and cinematic propositions of an imagined future investigate the permeable boundaries between nature and technology, myth and tool, history and potential. What will tomorrow bring: techno lust or future shock? Featuring the work of Philippe Blanchard, H2.0 Collective, Louise Noguchi and Kelly Richardson.
