You know, reality TV was exactly what my first thought was. I'm genuinely surprised at how the results have turned out. I thought culture would be the most voted, because that's mainly what we've used to define the decades that came before us. Although, maybe the further in the future it gets, the more simplistic the generalisation becomes and all those (what, to us, are distinct) decades get blurred together and it goes beyond culture. Who knows!
I don't think our music is particularly shit in comparison to some stuff that came before (and has since been forgotten about, for the obvious reasons). Perhaps we will be remembered for how commercial we are, so to speak. Consumerism and all that.
How will future generations perceive us?
