Futuresonic 2008
An annual festival of art, music and ideas, which is currently in its 12th year, Futuresonic occupies the orbits of both music and digital culture.
A focus in recent years has been presenting artworks in unexpected city spaces, and on social art and social technologies.
Futuresonic now invites artists, thinkers and makers to get social and present new types of collaborative social experience at Futuresonic 2008.
This is a time when we see how electronic communication can isolate us, as more and more people drown in a deluge of email that generates stress, even reducing IQ; and it is 40 years since people took to the streets of Paris in 1968 calling for society to be abolished.
Join us as we go in search of the social today.
Web 2.0... I take part you take part he takes part we take part you all take part they profit. (Slogan from Paris '68, remixed)

Futuresonic is supported by Arts Council England North West and presented in association with Imagination at Lancaster.

Terrorism is not an enemy. It cannot be defeated. It's a tactic. It's about as sensible to say we declare war on night attacks and expect we're going to win that war. We're not going to win the war on terrorism. - retired U.S. Army general, William Odom
