1000 PLATEAUX
THE FUTURE OF USE - THE USES OF THE FUTURE

As cultural and technological production accelerates, the future is faced with bigger expectation.
This edition of 1000 Plateaux explores how new uses expand the frontiers of consumption towards the future.
Along 45 days, this multi-format event proposes the research of creators who are, at this very moment, inventing, designing, and thinking the future of industrial production and everyday consumption, but also generating the future uses of performing arts, space, communication and cultural and scientific production.
From communication design to games; from video to architecture and city; from new musical formats to artificial intelligence; from new media to wearable computing; from digital design to nanotechnology; a permanent showroom will be created, presenting ideas, prototypes and projects that are already a part of our near future.
