How does the next art revolution look like?

Around a hundred years ago, Kandinsky was actively writing and painting, the Bauhaus school was thriving, Picasso and Braque were shaping a new formal universe, the futuristic artists were responding to the fast pace of technological developments, and the Dadaists were shaking formal aesthetics off the art world to change it forever. These movements were a direct response to changes in the world, technologically, such as the invention of photography, politically, such as world war and major revolutions, socially, such as radical changes in the structure and systems in which we organise ourselves, philosophically, such as the emergence of the ideas of Nietzsche, Marx, or Darwin, and so on, and so on.
My open question to you is: How do you see the ongoing or upcoming revolution in art? What is it going to rid art of? What is it going to adopt? And what is it responding to?
