Robert Gordon is an experimental filmmaker who has delved into the Cubist art movement with his latest short appropriately entitled 'Cubism.' The film uses recycled audio that explores cubism as a concept.

Inspired by revolutionary artists including Pablo Picasso, Georges Braque and Marcel Duchamp, Robert Gordon's 'Cubism' is a simple film that will captivate its audience through its cubist techniques.

**Implications** - Cubism is taking center stage once more. [Interior designers, architects, artists](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pure-exhibition), etc. are all shying away from circles in a proclamation that it's now hip to be a square. [Geometric design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-brutalist-speaker) is becoming the go to for consumer lifestyle choices rather than curvy, smooth design. The more edges, the more cutting edge your product.
