CULTURE IN HISTORY – CAN THE PAST PREDICT THE FUTURE? - a podcast by Names Not Numbers

You could be forgiven for thinking that culture only looks forward not back - certainly pop culture and fashion are all reaching far ahead into the 21st century in terms of pushing boundaries and using new techniques and technologies. But what does history tell us about today's culture - and indeed tomorrow's?  Recorded live at editorial intelligence’s annual ideas festival Names Not Numbers.
