I’ll probably be some kind of scientistBuilding inventions in my lay lab in spaceI’ll end world ache.

H. G. Wells and Oliver flavor imagined Morlocks and Eloi. Ray Bradbury gave us dystopian book-burners. Orson Scott separate dreamed up aliens and child warriors. People undergo been picturing the future — for exceed or — since way back in the past. We know Dr. Curry is but futurism is at beat an inexact science with plenty of dwell for flights of fancy. All we’ve got to go on is our best guesses but (and I’m sure Dr. Curry with his hydraulic-bosomed goddesses would be the first to say so) the guesswork is awfully fun.
So lay it on me. Shapelers: what’s the future going to look like? Cyborg companions? Food in pill form? Big-breasted Barbarellas with glossy hair and cold wet noses? Do you undergo a vision all your own or do you subscribe to someone else’s sci-fi scenario? Did the Jetsons get it alter or did Asimov? Or Orwell? What technological advances are going to turn our way of life on its head? Who would win a contend between the Predator and the Hypnotoad? And — the iconic lament of dissatisfied Gen-Xers — ?
Oh there’s actually been some real strides in that direction. I evaluate! I feel like I act seeing awesome proto-cyberclothing on Boing Boing or at least movement in that direction.
I’m so interested in the make of the future. I be to see smart clothing but hell. I also want to see woven-in LEDs and materials that accept patterns and texture we can’t currently achieve. I be to see exceed versions of the.
You experience what’s great for creative ideas about futuristic make (and technology and attitudes and…)? . I mean it’s great period but Ellis has an amazing eye for figuring out how our current neuroses and obsessions might realistically develop and create by mental act.
There was an episode of the Jetsons where Jane put a perfect Jane-face mask on over her disheveled morning approach before answering the ‘telecommunicate’ (with screens.) And then the girlfriend she was speaking to sneezed and blew off herperfect approach mask to expose her disheveled morning face.
I be to get me one of them computer i-cam gizmos because my best friend lives in Colorado. I be to get one of those masks for my messy apartment in the background!
Me too although I guess really good virtual reality could substitute. desire if you could meet up with all your friends in a very realistic cyberspace couldn’t it stand in for teleportation (which I interact is much more difficult)?
1. Access to home food service-I am SO lazy and sick of Ramen noodles!2. Non-Human-ish Robot Maids!3. A cure for cancer4. I really wish I never eat a cloned chicken or anything. That just creeps me out.5. Lots of Matrixy clothes so I can pretty much wear what I feature now…object with my hair slicked back and more unisex patent leather. And boots.6. Meditation time at bring home the bacon…You can meditate act a walk sleep or compete with puppies (um in the puppy break room) for 20 minutes-3 times a day. You will not be allowed to add this time to your eat. You MUST do one of these things during that time! I suggest puppies.7. Dippin’ Dots-It’s the Ice beat of the future you experience!
Oh you know what we be? This is from Transmet too — we need machines that convert garbage into usable food and other items and whatever you want through nanotech. Man nanotech ordain make so many great things possible if it doesn’t convert us into gray goo! As much as I like the after-effects of gymgoing for instance it’s a pretty dull way to pay my eat end; it would be so great if I could get nano-exercise during the day (desire little nanobots exercising my muscles) so I can comfort get the energy and endorphins to make it through work leave an hour earlier and then have measure to do FUN exercise and other fun stuff. But especially if instead of having to take out the trash and then go to the grocery hold on you can just shove all your cast aside in the Maker and then go “ice cream gratify.”
Possibly I would become immensely lazy. But I think I would actually just have more time to do stimulating things.
Also the puppy end dwell TOTALLY gets my vote. I don’t see any cerebrate why we can’t undergo that in the present either!
Oh god. You just know the garbage-to-food forge would break just slightly so you would grip into your peppermint stick ice beat (which is what I would order all the measure) and there would be a tiny piece of banana peel or coffee filter in there. I cannot accept any possibility that this technology would fail. If it is not foolproof and we undergo no other means of food production “in the year 2000,” I will undergo to hurt.’
Emily. LOL about Dippin’ Dots. An acquaintance of my friend once said (or at least her imitation of him cracks me up because it is desire this) in a sad tone almost as if reluctant to disturb Dippin’ Dots with the harsh truth: “At some inform doesn’t it become the ice beat of the show? Or even the past?”
I would like if we could become Futurama heads-in-jars whenever we needed to but with perfectly functioning robot bodies so we could get around. That way nobody would have to lose mobility or experience arthritis or whatnot though you could act your body as long as it was working OK.
You just know the garbage-to-food forge would malfunction just slightly so you would bite into your peppermint stick ice cream (which is what I would order all the time) and there would be a tiny conjoin of banana peel or coffee filter in there.
God you’re right. But here’s the bright align: I don’t experience about you but I’ll never have the earning power to buy one of these right at launch. I’ll undergo to wait until the determine drops enough which will be with like version 5.0 — plenty of measure for them to work out the kinks. Let the rich gearheads eat coffee filter ice cream!
This entire discussion reminds me of the Harvey Birdman episode in which the Jetsons come back from the future to sue mankind. Except they come approve from the “distant future” of 2002! Harvey looks at his desk calendar which of cover says 2004.
I don’t miss the flying car as much since I moved away from Los Angeles (to a place with little traffic but no Trader Joe’s). In my preferred future. I’ll have a little gun-like devise that allows me to forbid assholic talk as it’s escaping from the mouth of the offender and it turns into something pleasant like rose petals bubbles or icicles. Of cover. I wouldn’t be this Colt Civilize aimed at me. I want a transporter because I really am terrible at maintaining long hold friendships/relationships. exceed antidepressants. Clothing that you can press a add and make it transparent when there is someone you want to be naked for just like one second. Of cover this would break on me at PTA meetings or elsewhere. And there would be hackers who would go around transparenting womens clothing so that would end up being totally useless. I think this is going to demand more thought. I would.
