State Of Mind.

The evolving Metaverse and Internet of Things is set to develop as a comprehensive integration of the ‘us and the everything.’ Within this ‘live technology,’ it is expected that it will quickly learn to know us better than we currently know ourselves?’

As such, it will be interesting to see how much we will choose to give over of ourselves. How much will simply be taken or ‘annexed,’ by whom, and how much of us may be idealistically enhanced or extended through this potentially messy, new portal of augmented existences.

Where our new habitat might facilitate a progressive disengagement with states of materiality, the physical, and corporeal, will more societal emphasis be placed on immaterial ‘outputs’ instead, whether professionally or recreationally orientated?

Correspondingly, might new forms of currency and value be forged through embellished and advanced forms of the non-physical, such as storytelling, language, communication, song, asset-tokenism, ideas, or philosophy, for example? But aligned to this, what new forms of mental surcharge or conceptual taxation may be levied upon us within this immersive condition?

Will we witness the ‘proletarianization’ of the mind, or the ‘paeanism’ of the imagination?
