Still relevantFunnily enough Marvin locked himself in a caravan in Belgium and wanked himself into psychosis.
As retail continues to retreat, might our future high streets embrace the great outdoors?I've mentioned this before but I think one interesting fork in the road is what happens when the shops disappear. We're crossed a threshold. People will still consume needless to say but consumer spending is no longer the main driver of the world economy. The internet is forcing 'bricks and mortar' shops out of business.
There's an opportunity, potentially, for a reclamation of public space. Shopping is a tragically degraded use of it in any case. Could there be a way to repurpose it for something which involved interaction and shared projects etc. Almost certainly not... but who knows
Watched The Net last night. 90s hacker thing with Sandra Bullock that's pretty crap but feels prescient in some respects.
