| 691774 | 2008-07-24 16:59:00 | Ever notice that Max Headroom ( . museum . tv/archives/etv/M/htmlM/maxheadroom/maxheadroom . htm" target="_blank">www . museum . tv) seems to look more and more like life is nowadays? 90 inch wall-mounted TVs everywhere, digital music, retinal eye scanning, "Big Brother" observing you at traffic lights and "Streetview ala-Google", always present digital devices and GPS . Blipverts and neural stimulation, Zic-Zac (is this really M$ or Google?) . Max : "Special bulletin : There is still no news from New Zealand . If they ever have any, we'll be sure to let you know . " I mean . . . it's just scary how "twenty minutes into the future" is becoming t-t-true . What next? The Road Warrior and Bladerunner? The Running Man? As long as Logan's Run and Soylent Green stay far-far-far away! |
