Thanks to Jim Breaux, current UH Foresight student, for this creative take on what Connecting will look like in 2025.
Big data picked my classes and classmates for the next 4 years – I need an edge to make sure that I get a good grade as we are all about equal.
I have a snap family – when I applied to college my mom’s put me up for ‘adoption’ and I’ll be staying with the TG couple who run the maker space near the school. #free #mommysboy
I change out all of my friends every 3 years, max. Some only last a month, especially if they are married. #protip
My dorm mate is a 60 year old guy that speaks Croatian but wears a Google prosthetic to translate. He smells like garlic all of the time. #lifeoffail
I like to go to archived services in VR. Helps me rest and go to sleep; especially the sermons. #protip
I checked into my high security, isolation dorm last week – my food is delivered weekly and I go to classes via tunnels – or I can VR into the classes. #anonymous
My parents caught me cybering with my friends in the wave pool in FaceWorld. I thought my password was encrypted. #pantsdown
In a virtch class for 3 years before I found out my crush was a test student completely fabricated by my Sociology department, not a quiet girl from Idaho. #virtualfail
It’s not paranoia if they really are watching you #tooboring #badday #voyeurtales
I hacked my location tag and it turns off whenever I get into public transportation. I run with the Ghosts on the subway when I am not studying Bio-Industrial Finance. #protip
Social credit score was lame til I got one of the maker lab combo courses from art college in Canada and Industrial engineering class in Brownsville #throughtheroof
Hacked my contacts and permanently burned my retina in one spot. #xrayvisionappdidnotshow mewhathelookedlikeinhisunderwearanyway
I always buy the product with one star if it’s cheaper – product laws make it all work out anyway – and if it’s good, I say I hate it to keep the cost down #protip
Saw two hipsters SHAKE HANDS today! No news of flu EP34 in their world? #toetouchesonlyforme
I know more about my classmates than they do because I bought the upgrade privacy penetrator app. #protip
