Part III: Tomorrow Sounds Familiar
On our final journey, Frodlaw Anele demonstrates a series of technological items found in the future, augmenting our human cognitive and bodily potentials for an advanced world! This final object series transforms Anele’s audience in the imagination of the potential technological advancements of our far and near future.
We’ve arrived at our final destination.
It’s a world unlike those we’ve visited throughout our journey: across time, space and virtual worlds, we’ve found ourselves in the future.
Here, technologies take on new forms, possessing advanced capabilities as well as unusual physical forms.
How will these objects help us adapt to our strange new environment? Perhaps instead they will adapt to our own individual bodily needs...
Are their capabilities infinite and limitless?
Will they further help us to connect to our fellow man, or potentially other life forms?
Close your eyes, open your mind, and prepare yourself for new frontiers that lie ahead in our technological future.
Thank you for joining us on this special journey, we hope to see you again soon, or even in your dreams...until next time!
