Welcome to the Digital Redundancy…

This space is all about my view on the world through technology. Why is it shaping our lives as much as it does, and how do we live with it?

Since high school I have been very influenced by the Cyberpunk movement, ever since I saw Blade Runner actually, and then delved in to William Gibson and all the other 80′s legends. That was barely 10 years ago, we where dreaming of living in a world where everything was portable and connected. And we just had to wait for the begining of the 21st century, not even half a century after the term Cyberspace was coined by a sci-fi writer on his 1927 Hermes typewriter, to take the plunge into this transhuman and postmodern society.

Well, life hasen’t changed that much, except that everyone now, before leaving their house, always make sure that they have their keys, wallet and cellphone. We are always connected to the rest of the world, one way or the other.

But it is not always that society has managed to adapt as quickly as its subjects. And that is what we have to see yet, when the transition from the analog to the digital is complete, how are we going to come out of it?
