The FUTURIST


As the cold or flu began to bloom, I was employed to provide audio services for a major stock photo content provider for their company meeting with THE FUTURIST Thomas Frey. It was interesting and most everything he spoke about seems likely,  but also, some seemed far fetched and/ or sort of obvious. He seemed very thoughtful and provoked some interesting questions. One man finally suggested that the privacy concerns were pretty overwhelming and a couple of people though that the constant barrage of information technologies might be too much for the human brain to withstand.

It was again, strangely scheduled: it took 45 minutes to set up and then we took a 2 hour lunch (Shangai Garden- vegetarian stuff- excellent food) and then wandered up to the Wing Luke Museum.  It was an event and I was abandoned by the PA providers and left to handle the inevitable grotesque audio feedback the event wireless made whenever some one strayed in front of a speaker. I hate doing audio for events because things go bad.
