Did someone say something about the future?

I've recently been reading Retromania: Pop Culture's Addiction to its Own Past by Simon Reynolds. A great book discussing nostalgia within many formats - mainly music, film and art. At discussion here is the impact of readily accessibile resources, the ontology of museums particularly in retrospect to punk, and of great interest to myself, the nature of recreation, using great examples of Marina Abromivic's Seven Easy Pieces and re-enactments of concerts utilising cover bands and at times actors.

Have a look-
