Hybrid/Futuristic Project: thoughts

When I think about our future, hopes, ideas, and fears come to mind: hopes of returning to what is most important; ideas of how we can get there; fears and ideas of what may happen instead. Possibilities seem endless.

Hopes: that we return to a greener, more sustainable, and ultimately more simple way of living. Technology being used for good. Food and agriculture being home-grown.

Ideas: Perhaps due to my Buddhism class, the I thought of was the idea of cycles, Samsara - meaning the endless cycle of birth and rebirth.

Fears: the glorification of all those self-gratifying components of the media. The obsession of "reality" that is really a complete of deviation or reality. Children growing up way too early. Advertisements, the tools of the media, gone awry..
