H. G Wells.
Those who read fictions or classics should understand that it is an unconcious convertion of reality into a mix of reality and false elements (or rather, unfulfilled elements).
H.G Wells - War of the Worlds, The Time Machine.
Both signified his two very different portrayal of the future. A very likely future as well. In "The Time Machine", the main character (HG Wells himself) arrived in the future to find a very simple environment littered with artifact buildings and items from the +- 1980 to 2000 century. With human kind both totally suppresing of their own anima and animus archetype. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anima_%28Jung%29) Man became incredibly beastlike and violent without their feminine side keeping them in balance, and woman became incredibly feminine until they lose all notion of violence and strength. Just left with childlike composition of thoughts and body.
Will these be our future? Not one of advance technological advances, but of the detrimental state of human consciousness due to our lack of care for the psycological part of human beings.
When technology advances to a certain level, common human beings can never keep up with the changes. So they just use them only instead of worrying about what brings this thing to work and the theories and boring concepts. Humans, judging from the psycological point of view are mostly afraid of changes. And these technological changes might induce an unconscious fear of our very environment itself. The repression becomes a sort of mental disorder that untreated will deteriorate into violence and other symtoms. The primal part of the unconscious mind surfaces which overlapses the rationality. (see Id, Ego, Superego)
These things plus other external factors might trigger aggressiveness in a whole society, increasing violence and crime rates until a certain extend which might collaspe humanity if unchecked. Turning things into what H.G Wells suggest as a future. An alternate vision would be a community controlled by shrinks.
A friend has came out that the things above will never ever happen from a business perspective of things. And i too agree in a sense :P thanks f.y
