[quote]Future Shock is a time phenomenal, the product of the greatly accelerated rate of change in society. It arises from the superimposition of a new culture on an old one. It is Culture Shock in ones own society.[/quote]
Essentially, future.shock is a condition resulting from too much change in too short of time. It’s the lack of permanence. It’s a tail wind of transience that (the theory is…) undermines how we orient ourselves in the world. The term originated from Orson Welles’s documentary he narrated in 1972 called “Future Shock.” The film is based on a popular late 1960s book by Alvin Toffler, who claims the title “futurist.” Future.Shock.Media is an outlet to all that is futurist and shocks the status quo.

[quote]Yet Culture Shock is relatively mild in comparison with the much more serious malady Future Shock. Future Shock is the dizzying disorientation brought on by the premature arrival of the future. It may well be the most important disease of tomorrow.[/quote]
