As Big Picture As It Gets

What technology does, can do, is doing.......what's good about, what's great about it.......  what's dangerous about it, what's scary about it....a lot of us I'm sure have indulged in discussions a lot of times. 

When it's said that life has changed in the last fifty odd years, more fundamentally than it has in the last two thousand years, we know the speed and access of technology. And we watch from the sidelines...sometimes with excitement, sometimes with curiosity and at times with trepidation....especially when the discussion moves into spaces like cloning, robotics, simulations, singularity...and the like 

In that context, I loved the thinking, the clarity and the articulation by Maciej Cegłowski, a painter and a computer geek, in this talk titled 'Web Design First 100 Years'  (It's long...but it's brilliant)
