RE: Are We Living in Huxley's Brave New World? | Book Review and Cultural Insight

good highlight. Yes, we've got to bring technology away from screens and into physical space via AR etc..? And sure be nice to see more green spaces, more harmony with natural world.

We need to feel the hope that technology like blockchain can bring to modern world. And people will always love growing things, be it business, family, microgreens, trees. Mindsets just need to keep changing and get more harmonious, less power-crazy.

Sort:  

That last line really struck me. More harmonious and less power hungry indeed.

I agree that the blockchain offers tangible and realist opportunities for growth, without forsaking the natural world. We're steeming with solar power from our off grid homestead, and steemit is offering a viable income for us.

I am hopeful, if sad at where our cultural values of consumption have led us.
