\n\t\tWhat expectations did the past have for the future? Why did our world today turn out the way it is? Have you ever wondered about these questions? 100 years again, 19th century artist Jean-Marc Côté illustrated a series of images titled “Visions of the Year 2000”. Let’s see how well his predictions fit with our modern society nowadays! <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Now, with advanced tech companies bringing us automated cleaners, you don’t even have to be in the same room. This machine is so intelligent it even knows how to avoid running into walls or other furniture. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Today, with the popularization of the Internet, emails are an everyday thing, along with web-chats, texts and instant messages. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n

\n\t\tImagination is fuel for invention <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\n\t\tIt is fair to say that human progress come hand in hand with human imagination. One pictures himself flying freely like a bird, and the airplane is invented. One dreams of listening to voices miles away, and the telephone is invented. We never seize to have hopes of a more advanced future, hence the sci-fi movies, novels and animations. Even though some are still quite our of our league, it is never wrong to dream a bit bigger. Let’s start from there. Would the world depicted in sci-fi movies come true one day? It is hard to say, but with our imagination, anything is possible. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
