About

The year is 2042. Discover the car: legendary machine that nearly ruined our planet — but didn't because people like us kicked the petrol addiction... Ever wonder how we achieved the sustainable society that we are lucky enough to live in now? Step back in time to 2012 to discover where it all began. Introducing: 'Museum from the Future' a pop-up exhibition with real artefacts from the bygone motoring age, an interactive history of the downfall of the car, and a programme of events exploring Oxford's role in the global transition to a post-oil, post-car world. See the website for the full programme of exciting events including lunchtime lectures, children's storytelling, film screenings, performance poetry and a whole host of other activities. Featuring all your favourite bicycle technology such as bike-chariots, bike-cinema, bike-sound systems and more. Tours run on the hour - or peruse at your pleasure. An interactive installation for the imagination created by artofactivism, Spokeswomen, Beryls' Night and Shtig. Funded by individual donations and IdeasTap.
