Advanced Construction from Synthetic Sunset by James Blackwell
A child’s understanding of great industrial manufacturing strength. Is there a difference between a child’s understanding and those most capable of treating others as toys? Perhaps not. Manufacturing complex tools requires ever-refined and delicate instruments. These tools can be heard dancing between trends, fashions, and marketing campaigns, to produce something that is sadly more often than not more image than product.
The playful and bright feel of this piece covers a dark truth. Do we enjoy the moment or should it be spent in fear of what we know if coming? Voices request funding and investments, as the lack of competition funnels capital through fewer hands and fewer possibilities for divergence in the trends of technological innovation. The bright interface first seen in 5) The Layers of Progress (and continued in 6) Works) has become the only understanding of how these deeply complex and powerful machinery works. What use is something powerful if you cannot interact with it?
