Addressing issues such as theater, dance, body, language, stage, reality, and the audience, this book attempts to ask questions about the art of the future – or art as the future.

The cover is nearly as thin as the leaves, and this fragile feeling is counterbalanced by the bold interior typography. The text-free front cover features the poetry-reading humanoid robot in Oriza Hirata’s play Sayonara (2010). In the second print cover further zooms in on the figure, suggesting the sense of nearing the future.
