In this year, 2030, the world obviously changed radically and rapidly, thanks to the obvious rapidity of the technological progress.
The old systems on how society was structured have obviously become obsolete and no longer worked… They were based on competition and on scarcity that created value and this was in high conflict with automation, IT progress, internet, intelligence artificial and the creation in the abundance of everything that was needed for survival and well-being is every single person.
At a certain point, around 2023 the governments of the world decided to definitively complete the old systems, also because we were destroying the world for futile and senseless things …
Thus two worlds were created: One Online and One Offline, Totally connected to each other through Augmented Reality.
The offline world was almost entirely based on local life, the Goods and Tools we needed were built and processed locally, made some exceptions when it was cheaper to do so. The recycling of raw materials became crucial, the concept of trash and waste was banned forever, everything was recycled into raw materials.
The pollution laws have also become very severe, since the technologies and alternative materials allowed the same results to minimum pollution.
Even classical monetary systems were abandoned, in their place emerged automated systems of “reputation” of the Citizens.
Copyright and the classic Intellectual Property, with the internet and the system of the shares and all its advantages, were not banned … but they died alone, because the traditional monetary system became obsolete too …
But in a sense they became a sort of new “monetary” system with the “reputation” mechanism.
It was discovered that collaborating was better than competing they all earned us, as everyone had more or less the same basic needs … In the processing of land, in the maintenance of cities, in the processing of raw materials necessary for the most varied uses, also because the evolution of machines and technologies had made everything less tiring … and working was a way not to get bored, we followed the dreams and passions, as we did not work anymore for survival … but for personal and collective evolution.
Actually, in large part except exceptional cases, nowadays most only raw materials traveled between the various places and continents, even the obvious people were traveling, but only when really strictly necessary and almost never to work …
And there’s a reason for this, and it’s the Virtual World, a modern internet, which is now a digital copy of the Real World and also something more, where everything inside the human mind could conceive. The people, who were long distance, met and collaborated with each other in this place, which was virtually physical in all espects, even in sense of touch, the smell and of course in the visualization, through special simulation rooms that could simulate almost all the physical world …
At the center between these two worlds there was an application that evolved faster than the others by its very nature … it was called Blender, it was an application that had now incorporated all the tools of graphic and design processing, and actually this tool was used to do everything, from the construction and design in collaboration of the objects that then served in the physical world to the elaboration and creation of entire virtual cities …
Now there were only servers, clients and OS blender that was metaphor “the multipurpose knife” that everyone knew and everyone knew how to use.
This is the beginning of the year 2030 … now try some of you to continue the story …
