As long as the human race keeps going, there can be no end to rhythm: we will always need to place events in musical time. It is unlikely that a drone music monoculture will hold static sway for future millennia or take over all perpetuity; humanity’s hyperactive search for meaning needs more reactionary pacing and diversity. Yet while there should be no dispute that there is a future for rhythm, the contents of that future are inevitably impossible to predict, this being the only accurate prediction in the field of futurology. The present chapter will attempt to extrapolate a few current trends and anticipate interesting and, it is hoped, inspiring scenarios but acknowledges the dangers of dropping a crystal ball on our dancing feet. I proceed by considering the space of possible rhythms, the limits of human production of rhythm, the transformation of rhythm through technological means, and the latest repercussions of artificial intelligence technology on rhythmic practice.
