In 1961, while discussing movies with a friend, I proposed that one day people would walk into a theater, sit in the dark for 13 seconds, receive an impulse, and walk out into the lobby with the distinct impression they’d just watched a movie. They’d feel as if they’d gotten the point and the impact, even though they wouldn’t be able to tell you anything about the movie.
Electronic signature. Transmitted to create the sensation of actual experience.
I still think it’ll happen someday.
In many areas.
You’ll sit at a restaurant under the stars, order from the menu, and a minute later you’ll be hit by a wave that conveys the sensation of steak, lobster, baked potato, champagne, chocolate cake.
You’ll book a vacation to Fiji. Never leaving your couch, you’ll absorb the electronic signature of the trip. The whole works. The cottage on stilts above the beach, the salt air, the scuba diving, the fish dinners, the walks on the beach…
Simulation. Instant.
