Leave a Comment more...2057: Cities, The World & Body (Discovery drama-docs)
by admin on May.01, 2007, under Documentaries, science
The first of three drama-documentaries (2 linked below) by the Discovery channel, attempting to predict future technologies via drama – intersplicing each section with interviews and ‘the science bit’ of the documentary. The City envisages holographic pets & robots, intelligent cars and networked smart buildings that help & protect us all – plus the related present technologies. The World looks at the future geo-politics of Earth’s limited natural resources – via various space & military technologies plus renewable power sources (exluding the ocean’s gas hydrates!) Whilst The Body looks into emerging bio-technology; such as intelligent clothing, chip implants and body part production.
