At Arnolfini it is presented as a research and exhibitions programme investigating envisionings of the future, looking at the role of architecture and the infrastructure of the built environment within this.

Neil Cummings & Marysia Lewandowska's film Museum Futures: Distributed is a machinima record of the centenary interview with Moderna Museet's executive Ayan Lindquist in June 2058. It explores a possible genealogy for contemporary art practice and its institutions, by re-imagining the role of artists, museums, galleries, markets, 'manufactories' and academies.

The screening will be followed by a discussion led by Neil Cummings and the curators of the Sequelism exhibition, imagining the future of art institutions.
