A supercut of futuristic and predictive scenes from sci-fi movies by Eclectic Method
Blade Runner’s Megacities alongside A.I.’s flooded New York and Idiocracy’s run down shanty towns. Some technology predictions in these films have already proven to be accurate and some are still a ways off – or not! … cameras on every corner, oil shortages, massive cultural uprisings in the middle east, retinal scans, X-Rays, flying cars and hoverboards, hybrid humans, robots, A.I., teleportation and so on. Who really watches Sci-Fi for the plot anyway, you wanna see the goodness condensed.
Thanks Fergus O’Neil

Architecture and design critic Oliver Wainwright steps into the London Barbican’s Rain Room: where 2,500 litres of water falls at 1,000 litres per minute but you won’t get wet.
Created by art studio rAndom International, the free installation (which opened last week) runs until 3 March 2013.
Gulp.
