A major premise underlying Evolutionary Architecture is that not only will things change, but we can't predict how they will change. While this premise makes predicting anything problematic (at best), we can postulate some ways that the principles and practices of Evolutionary Architecture will change in the medium term. This talk will examine some possible futures for the principles and practices of Evolutionary Architecture.
