In After the Future, Franco “Bifo” Berardi explores the end of the century-long obsession with the future. Tracing the rise and fall of futurism, from Marinetti’s Manifestoto thecyberculture of the 1990s, Berardi shows how these visions of progress led to a dystopian reality of virtual lifeand actual death. The future, once a driving force for cultural and technological revolution, has failed. Now, we must confront the consequences and decide what comes next.
