Title: Microsoft’s Vision of the Future
Context: Be careful what you wish for in the future. You just might get it.
Synopsis: What might the future look like? Who the hell knows? It’s impossible to predict but that doesn’t stop us from trying to develop our own ideas of what our shared technological fate might look like. As a species, we probably aren’t even capable of not thinking about what the future may hold. It’s what we do. But one’s person’s gleaming utopian paradise is another’s nightmarish dystopian hellscape. No matter what your vision of the future may be, there is one thing all of us can agree on: we will surely be overrun with iconographic hallucinations. Welcome, to the future…
Best Bit: “Thanks to Microsoft and computers, in the future we won’t just be saving trees…we’ll be living in them.”
