This is the era where everything changes

in #world8 years ago

Robots, Virtual Reality, Worldwide Instant Communication and Data Transfer, Blockchains, ... These are the tools we have now in our hands, as important as the fire or the wheel, this new set has so many ways to be used that we might be busy for centuries finding new uses and improving the concepts.

This is only possible in an ever communicating world where most of it has access to information, where any geek can get his hands around cheap or free knowledge, cheap or free gear to experiment. Being professionnal was required before, now you just have to be motivated and interested to be a part of the world's evolution.

And that's the great thing about this era, we are not some humans scattered around a planet. Not anymore. We are groups of people with no boundaries or limitations. Some say the human contact we have now is more virtual than real, I simply say that the distance between us was made virtual and nonexistent. We accomplish things, share emotions, learn things, ... These are the most real things you can have in this world.

And that's the kind of world I've been dreaming of for years, when I was teenager, when I had some crazy project involving several musicians from different countries working together on the same song. When we sent to each other (very slowly) the basic sounds, melodies and our ideas around them. When a japanese musician contacted me because he wanted some people from different countries, with different musical styles to provide a remix of one of his songs. A world which began with Lan parties, together in the same room shouting at each others, soon replaced by decentralized gaming keeping only the vocal and sometimes visual communication, a world where blogs existed in some deep spots of the Internet, when you were so happy when one of your 10 dailies readers commented on one of your articles.

There's no way I would want to trade this era for another one, a very big change is happening right now, a change that will make today's world totally different in a few years. A world where every human will have a voice and some way to improve his life or others life. A world where a lot of common people will try to create new things and a few of them will have a huge success at it. A world where discovering your inner talent will be open to everyone, where useful single ideas are spread even when there's not a market behind them.
