200 years from now the small number (few hundred million) of people left on the planet will connect to each other via a neural network that will make the internet seem like communicating via telegram. How will it work? Virtual reality will work by first monitoring the brain activity of people in response to various sensations, once recorded the brain will be stimulated in these same areas at the appropriate times (ie when an orange is on screen or whatever). It is true that scientists have developed neural networks amongst primates that actually turn out to be more intelligent than any individual ape. Non workers will be required to donate time each day (they will ultimately operate robots via the neural network) in return for sustenance. There will be few jobs, your brain-power will be monetised. Obviously this is my science fiction story.
I know. Found out way too late though. Might see if any of the blank franks have any spare if time permits a window.
Said in a nasal like tone from a bloke about five feet seven tall. He answered to the name Brian. "Eh, you lot. Get your medals, all yer caps, and all yer tin-cups and put them in that ****ing bin over there, because you all cheated." Brian Clough to Billy Bremner, Johnny Giles etc...etc...on his first day at training at Leeds United.
The title is: Ambient Music, Fine Art, and Technology: a guest talk from Brian Eno. Middleton Hall 18.00 to 20.00. . There’s also a 'free event open to all' from 4pm to 5pm at the Middleton Hall, about the music of Hull’s Basil Kirchin, featuring a documentary screening followed by a short discussion ‘led by Professor Alastair Borthwick and Brian Eno'. Jib in for the Kircho event ? This is gonna sound kind of crazy I know, but some of us squares are still working between 4 and 5 rather than lounging on some faraway beach doing **** all.
