With the advent of such small, low power consumption, computing chips, what can I say… the problem is, these things arent going to make my life easier. Someones gotta make the chips, so theyll make a living, but my job, customer support, is just going to get algorythmically more complex. Not to mention that at a certain point, the chips themselves are going to start complaining. I was at a conference at Yale university years ago, maybe 1998? I think it was called the hybrid theory conference, and there was a talk given on something like Marketing Allen Ginsburg where the panel talked about when computer chips were going to demand to be labelled workers so they could get the rights to unionize and ask for benefits based on CPU cycles… utter trope-i-fication…

Found this awesome yet threatening tech movement from the Walker Art and Technology Center blog. Its always hard to tell if things like this are art or actually work? This looks like it may work though. Plants that call people. That just generates too much thought in the old flesh brain. I wont even begin to go down that road.
