My new website is now available: “The Great Vanishing”
From the introduction:
“Within twenty years, a new mass medium – the Metaverse – will emerge to take advantage of a global computing, communications, and sensing platform – the next-generation internet. The Metaverse will quickly subsume all other mass media and internet-enabled services, including the web. The consumer electronics industry will enjoy unprecedented success by providing to billions of people around the world a bewildering number of Metaverse-enabled consumer electronics. The industry will abruptly collapse, however, with the advent and mass consumer adoption of brain-machine interfaces and other deeply integrated biotechnologies. By 2030, the “Great Vanishing” of consumer electronics and other physical human artifacts will have begun as their capabilities are threaded into our biology.”
Chapter 1 is available now and I hope to release Chapter 2 next week. Chapters will be added periodically throughout the rest of the year.
