Would you want to live like this?

A short futuristic film by Eran May-raz and Daniel Lazo.
"This is our graduation project from Bezaleal academy of arts."

Only a film, but worryingly plausible with Google Glass etc on the way.

Longish vid (about 7mins) but worth the watch.

That was awesome. Definitely had a Black Mirror vibe to it, especially as it went on.

Longish?!!! 7 mins?!! Says a lot about people's attention spans these days and that's the frightening reality of the present never mind the future! No offence,like. No wonder people can't watch a footy game without leaving early ;)

Is it worrying though? Would you not want to get involved in all that jazz? Honest question.

But brilliant video, brilliant edit.

Apart from the end, I didn't find any of it worrying, it looked pretty sweet to me :thumbsup: Nicely made video though. with a slightly different twist to the usual AR stories :)

You know what I mean, for a YouTube browsey type video. But yes, you have a point.

More scary in terms of what it could mean for social interaction. Also, what if it got "hacked" or "crashed"? Could be terrifying.

Am listening to Arcade Fire's Black Mirror to get me in the mood for tonight's Black Mirror. Last in the series. Tales of the Unexpected for the Millenium generation (or a complete rip off if Spielberg's A.I. if you saw the first episode of this series)
