WorldChanging images of the future

My colleague Zap pointed me to some of WorldChanging’s links to images of the future…

Pantopicon’s FFWD>> competition presents a series of themes, and asks for images set in 2005 and 2025 as illustration. (reference)

The Onion’s 2056 issue.

Alex Steffen — in a post wonderfully similar to MIG’s ideas on tangible futuresitemizes tools for delineating the future.

The expansion of CAD designs with motion, time, and plot.

    … thanks for this posting and the link on Edward Burtynsky, Victor. Interestingly I’ve stumbled across his works a while ago. Unfortunately I didn’t recall his name and website as I was looking for one of his photos on ship deconstruction in India for a presentation recently. Well, seems I’m back on track now ;-) Have a nice day!
