Future Shock (1972) 1/5

but one thing will be permanent forever,
change

This documentary was made at the end of the last progressive period in American society. This whiplash could have been the catalyst for the great thirty years of darkness to follow. Look at what little has been accomplished beyond the predictions of this documentary! I guess "Future Shock" accomplished it's objective, "shut it down!"

Somewhat dated, but a quality documentary about the downside of rapid progress. Welles does a terrific job of narrating....

also check out "F For Fake", another Welles documentary

Nothing is permanent anymore.
So what else is new, this documentary sounds like it´s written by an Victorian Grandpa who´s afraid of change and obviously does not want to embrace change and going with the flow and fuzzy logic and the deterministic nonperiodic flow af chaos. Probably want the old time religion that preaches solic petrified truth, which is of course a lie.

For those interested, the electronic music soundtrack was composed by Gil Melle, who also did the electronic music soundtrack for The Andromeda Strain.

I love early electronic music.

You should check out some stuff from Monte Cazazza, it's very "old" and "dated", great stuff.

Thanks, i checked a little Cazazza out and it was interesting. The "a is for atom" track in particular.
