20th
century`s Sci-Fi could not imagine mobile phones… At those days people imagined
several kinds of complicated machines for everything, but not some so simple
and, at same time, so complex as a mobile phone. Maybe “The Jetsons” approached
something similar with that “talking watch”… But nothing as a small computer
shooter talker photographer library etc. etc. that you can carry inside your
pocket.
This great
invention, maybe one of the greatest in history of mankind, brought even a kind
of new step for democracy and citizenship… How many people can achieve
information of the entire world and, at same time, can communicate anything…
But,
everything has, at least, two sides… So, mobile phones also changed the human
timing… People are forgetting patience, forgetting to wait, to wait for
anything… to be far from anything… to be unwired… “Unplugged”… So the only time
is now and in a not poetical way, or even philosophical…
This one of
the greatest after-postmodern paradoxes.
