Reading Week Twelve

The ten dreams of technology as taken by me (a.k.a probably not very well)

1. This is the aspect of the internet and technology that so many people are afraid of – technology and computers becoming as smart as or smarter than us. – the ability for us to communicate with technology in order to create a two way learning path.

 

2. Emergance – this dream confused me. I guess it relates to the evolution of technology and it becoming more humanised?

 

3. Virtual reality. The dream of becoming even more realistic. I tell you what, with some things it may not be perfect yet but it’s getting pretty close to when virtual realities will be extremely life like.

 

4. The communication technology being developed has already provided ways for people from all over the world to communicate and contact each other. I think that it being the single cause of world peace is probably a bit of a stretch at this stage… but it would be great if I was wrong about this.

 

5. Transparency … meh… the bit of the section that I noticed is soooo true is the fact that your computer grows to become or at least reflect you!

 

6. ??? I don’t get this one – it went straight over my head!

 

7. I think this one explores the opportunity for open and public work or art… kind of like the nikis.

 

8. To experience another person or being’s feeling and emotions is kind of creepy, but I can see how it would be extremely useful in many areas of life.

 

9. As art and technology collide a whole new world or art is being created and it will be ever growing and changing as technology continues to develop and grow itself.

 

10. The potential for hacking opportunities is great! And it is pretty much un-policed as so many parts of the Internet do not have security or wall protecting it from such acts.

 

Basically it’s all going to end up like iRobot…
