RE: My Phone Died. It Felt Like Part of Me Did Also.

in #technology7 years ago

Our brains are simply an interface device that allow our sentience to interact with the physical world. Our sentience can map to anything given time.

Have you ever played video games? First few minutes or hours are spent learning the interface. At first, you think "push this button right to go right." But eventually, your brain maps to the interface, and then your sentience can stop thinking about how to go right and starts thinking about when and why to go right. That's when you really start playing the game.

We have passed the point of gadgets because our brains are now accustomed to being mapped to the internet. Most of us are no longer intrigued by the externals of a device much. What we want is for our gadgets to become invisible. The less we have to think about the interaction, the more we can just focus on what we want to get done in there, in electronic space. Thus for us, the best technology is the technology that we don't even think about or see because it does its job so well that we don't even have to notice it.

Louis Sullivan: "Form follows Function." That's where we are headed.

Very well said. Ready Player One is in our future.

Probably so! Looking forward to the movie.

Soon we'll be writing posts with our minds, no need to type at all with our fingers. Facebook already working on it, now we just wait.
