WHERE MUSIC LISTENS TO YOU

We are living it

Posted over 2 years ago
Today has ended in a most unusual way. I could not believe the headline and article I have just read. It made me realize we are living Science Fiction come to fact everyday. I wonder how much of this amazing technology we gloss over and take for granted. What people dreamed of in dime store novels and other forms of media 50 years ago is all around us.This morning while at the airport I was reading about the discovery of a possible habitable planet, then noticed someone flipping up there phone and talking into it - and said to myself, woah- that's exactly what the Communicator device id in the Star Trek shows in the 60s.Then I came across this article today:"What would happen if the robots turned against us?":http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/news/news.html?in_article_id=451016&in_page_id=1770Note this part: "A rather silly report commissioned by the Department of Trade and Industry talked about giving robots "human" rights - including the right to vote, to receive income support, the provision of council housing and even robot healthcare."Just one of those weird days where I felt like I was in a sci-fi movie rather than watching one.Now, for putting up with my babble, I present you with the gift of Kate Bush from one of the greatest albums ever made.
