TAZ Podcast

The Ambient Zone // Episode 27

The future is a kind of history that hasn’t happened yet. The past is a kind of future that has already happened.  The present moment vanishes before it can be described. Language, a human invention, lacks the power to fully adhere to reality. 
 
We live in a very short now and here, since the flow of events in spacetime is mostly closed to human comprehension. But we have to say something about the future, since we have to live there. So what can we say? Being “futuristic” is a problem in metaphysics; it’s about getting language to adhere to an unknowable reality. But the futuristic quickly becomes old-fashioned, so how can the news stay news?

He is the author of more than 20 books including ground-breaking science ficiton and non-fiction about hackers, design and the future.

He previous spoke for Long Now about "The Singularity: Your Future as a Black Hole": http://longnow.org/seminars/02004/jun/11/the-singularity-your-future-as-a-black-hole/ in 02004.
