2010 - The future is so damn overrated

Post by Carl Lofgren » Thu Jun 24, 2010 9:03 am

I guess I'm getting old, but I was expecting a lot more from the future. In the year 2010 we should surely be eating full-dinner pills, go on vacation in our personal space rockets and everybody would have their own jet-pack. Virtual instruments, iPads and monster-clusters. Damn, I want my robot. Now!

I really was looking forward to a time when we could just have digital simulations of all our favourite synthesisers on a computer so small we could just carry it around in a bag with us all the time. These computers would be so powerful we could sequence and perform our own music on the fly without the need for hardware samplers and drum machines.

I also wanted to see a time where we no longer need to carry cash and can simply insert a card into a machine and punch in our security code and it automatically deducts the amnount from your bank account.

A pipe dream I know, but I really thought...
