As mentioned last week, I am currently away. Well, while I write this I’m not, I’m sitting on my bed wondering what the odd smell in my room is.

However, by the time you read this it will be the future and I will now be in the past, still on my bed with the funny smell. But also I will be in the present with you which is the future to… them. Also I’ll be taller.
The previous two days of ARTicles have been what I can only assume were accurate predictions of the future/present/now the past. However as I try to think even further ahead to Monday/today/the future I find it a far off and distant prospect.

What will the future hold? I have used my best powers of deduction to figure this out and have hence reported the following news, which I assume will have happened about 8am today for you.

After years of speculation, scientists have finally developed the next stage in communication, appropriate to the future/current day that we now live in and which seems normal to us now, despite our strange new clothes that are all pastel coloured.

Using the latest research into enzymes and brainwaves and… laboratories and… the latest Flash player upgrade, scientists have finally brought telepathy from the realms of science fiction into the realm of non fiction and shut off the doors to all other realms so it is trapped.

BT Tower

I was most excited when I read about this as I wrote it. I wondered how the scientists will achieve this great advancement in technology but being only a humble/amazing artist I can only guess.

I have built this tower to signify how I believe the new telepathy communication will be achieved. I think that everyone will be given small, hand-held boxes that will enable them to connect to this giant tower which manages the individual telepathic neurony messages between all humans. The customers will then press simple keys on the box to pick who they want to communicate with telepathically. This will alert the recipient that someone wants them to open their brainwaves for communication. They will press a button agreeing to this invitation and then the telepathy will begin!

After a trial period I think people will find the silence as the world communicates in telepathy disturbing and people will be encouraged to voice out loud what they have just mentally communicated, probably into their boxes so there is no confusion as to who they are talking to.

I have called the tower the BT Tower, to stand for Benign Telepathy. This is to signify the Telepathy and also that it is a benign technology as I’m sure people will be worried about the obvious brain tumour risk to do with the high degree of radiation needed to enable the communication.
THE FUTURE IS NOW!!!! (not now now but now now when you’re reading this now)
