“Technologies like Magic Leap’s will enable us to generate, transmit, quantify, refine, personalize, magnify, discover, share, reshare, and overshare experiences. This shift from the creation, transmission, and consumption of information to the creation, transmission, and consumption of experience defines this new platform. As Magic Leap founder Rony Abovitz puts it, “Ours is a journey of inner space. We are building the internet of presence and experience.”
We haven’t yet fully absorbed the enormous benefit that the internet of information has brought to the world. And yet we are about to recapitulate this accomplishment with the advent of synthetic realities."
The Untold Story of Magic leap, the World’s Most Secretive Startup by Kevin Kelly via Wired. This is a looooong article, but a must read.
On a side note, Kevin Kelly (founding editor of Wired) is one of my favorite futurists.... check out some of his other stuff:

Space Junk is Becoming a Serious Security Threat
Do some of the proposed technologies for removing space debris pose dual-use concerns?
The short answer is yes. In fact, pretty much any technology for removing debris could be used to take down a satellite under hostile circumstances.

I’m slowly getting back online... Over the last 6 months I haven’t been online much other than posting to IG and infrequently on Fb with the random moment on Twitter. I am very lucky to be here and I’m very thankful to be on my way to a full recovery... I’ll be sharing more on that in a future post and in the introduction to my next book...
I’ve spent the afternoon making a few updates to my site: kristen.education. You’ll see a new header and I’ve also added some of my “secret” pages to the “Curation” page.
My next project is going to be signing up for Star Wars Virtual Half Marathon. I’m going to ask friends and family to sponsor me and donate the money to a Kidney Charity.
Stay tuned!

I had previously posted the link to this article, but since I had posted it as a link I couldn’t update that post... **note to self, use “text” instead of “link” when posting to tumblr... lol...
Anyhow, I wanted to update it with a playlist of the tracks mentioned in the post... since the links in the post were from soundcloud, I figured it would be easiest to create the playlist in soundcloud... which meant... yes... another social media account...

What other classical pieces can I add to this list?
