What time is it?

TIME TO SAVE YOUR CORPORATE FUTURE.

Time for an update. A new idea we had here at Future Unincorporated is to encourage a Swiss watch company to relocate from 5th Avenue to Bushwick in time for 2012, as a part of the larger 'Saving Our Corporate Futures' program. We want to help Bushwick to become updated, and a better sense of time would help the neighborhood to become more aware of the time ticking away around them.



The proposal is not as one sided as it might seem. We are on all sides, protecting everyone with our greater sense of worry. In addition to updating Bushwick so it can have a corporate future like everyone else, we are also interested in protecting the corporate interests of large and exclusive companies. Their role in the life of an average consultant is vital for purposes of classification of people based on status and finance, for structuring our priorities in terms of consumption, self evaluation, and giving those of 'us' lower on the totem pole something to strive for. Piaget could be your new raison d'etre, so long as they move to Bushwick before the economy takes away their highly credited clients. The market has no borough boundaries. Relocation might not be an option, but a necessity.

New Opportunities on the Horizon

There are a lot of opportunities for growth coming up in the future. One idea we have is that if Bergdorf Goodman really does want to move to Bushwick, a lot of the recent art school graduates might get jobs in their neighborhood instead of travelling to midtown or whatever. In our most humble educated opinion we would say that Mr. Andrew Goodman would prosper in this new location starting in the year 2012. Bergie's is the top rated retail chain for exclusivity, and associated social status of people who shop there, but even with such a special following, it is definitely strategic to imagine the complications of the implicit recession and the new client base that might be found among the rubble in industrial Brooklyn.

Coming Soon.

Starting May 10, Future Unincorporated will open up a new temporary office in Bushwick, Brooklyn at 195 Morgan Avenue (3rd Ward) for about one month.

At our new location in Bushwick, we will be providing our services to help prepare our new neighborhood for participation in tomorrow.

In our office on Morgan Ave. (generously donated by 3rd Ward) we will be creating a scenario we expect to take place in the future on the streets of Bushwick.

Here is the scene: the year is 2012. Manhattan is filled with tourists and middle age white people compose the 'fringe'.

Even the shops on 5th Avenue can no longer afford their rents in Manhattan, and they have been pushed into Brooklyn.

The companies formerly located on two blocks of 5th Avenue decide to relocate to find a new market. Even Williamsburg is too expensive, so many of the businesses located between 56 and 59 St. on 5th Avenue have bought property in Bushwick. Prada has moved to 198 Morgan Ave., as pictured above.

Don’t shoot the messenger!

To prepare the community for this likely scenario, our experts have created a realistic installation on Morgan Avenue.

Signage, posters, and handouts will be distributed to inform residents, employees, and business owners in the neighborhood of the hypothetical influx of corporate franchises.

To help inform and counsel the local community, we will open our office to the public for consultations about their feelings and possible experiences of the future.
We will offer advice about the future and a shoulder to cry on to clients with appointments during selected business hours.
In addition to complimentary consultations, we will be raffling off futuristic survival tools for members of the so-called up-and-coming corporate community.

Stay tuned for more details...

Is it tomorrow yet?

We are working on setting up our office in the basement of our Bedford-Stuyvesant location in Brooklyn, and we can't help but wonder if this is really what the future meant to bring. We know there are many good things coming despite the recession and our absent relationship with finance, but sometimes hours drag into days in the subterranean office. We are a socially networked type of corporation, but it certainly seems like we are the only office still open in this town. Please let us know if we can help you with anything.

Corporate Generosity Profile

When you look at the profile of Future Unincorporated, we want you to see our positive, generous side. In order to look our best to you, we decided to create a pilot program to help our neighbors in NY, starting from the bottom.
This could be you:

Our first attempt to help people is to donate tools to update potential clients. The first step was to deliver a new laptop to emerging artists who might be lacking the tools they need to express themselves.
Do you ever feel like your ideas don't matter?
We do.



To put an end to these feelings, we delivered our first handmade laptop to Carey Maxon. We were excited to offer this opportunity for change. Things are going to be moving forward a lot faster now.

The possibilities just got more endless.


A few weeks later we held our first meeting to get the community excited about our new offer. Carey Maxon, now inspired artist and Future Unincorporated intern held a conference open to members of Bushwick University School of the Arts called

Consulting Myself: Making My Own Successful Art in Brooklyn

Lasagna was served, and we kept to a tight schedule.
The most important part of the meeting was the exhibition of Carey's final product. The digital revolution really got deep into her, and caused a lot of growth.

Please join us for the digital unveiling of her progression into the future-- this is what Future Unincorporated helped Carey to do!!!

And now... the opportunity has been passed on... A new generation of computers has been made available to emerging artists. We are waiting to see what Christine Maxon will do with her new product.The feeling of infinite possibility really took over the meeting.

Consulting Consultants.

In our business plan we mentioned that we planned to consult with other consultants. We have been meeting with Lisa Paul, who has been influencing us to develop our department of finance as well as our accounting/numerology department.
She mentioned that it might be a good idea for us to get on the famegame so we could get our name out there. We are not sure how we feel about fame, since consulting is a very personal process. Each client is a problem to be solved. We are top secret. However, we would like some famous, well paying clients.
