Framing Story 2.0

In the year 2100, every human being is able to attach the brain computer interface to their bodies. The BCI is in the form of a small, circular, transparent interface attached to the side of the brain. However, once it is called in mind, it will start to have visible colors, making it easier to be removed from the body. It directly measures the activity of the central nervous system and converts into artificial output. The electrical signals from brain activity can also interact with, influence, and change the environment they see directly.

However, this BCI is more for the purpose of getting information as easier as possible and change the world we see.

The process of how the BCI works of collecting data from the nerves will be illustrated using after effects or unreal engine in an abstract way. Therefore, visualizing the process in an aesthetic way.

I will use video to demonstrates how the BCI in 2050 is functioning. However, I haven’t decided yet if I will incorporate the real video footage or making everything using for example, unreal engine, after effects, or animate. I might very likely to incorporate two of them together so it can show the difference from the real world more vividly. By putting the real image and the created world together as a comparison, it will be easier to see exactly the difference of the life with and without BCI.

In the city of the future world, humans are becoming the creatures impeded with technologies, like cyborgs. The world is about the vision from an individual, as everyone is get to envision and see a world that is slightly different from the other in the way they want it to be. The world is essentially a virtual space, doesn’t fully exist in a non-changing physical way, but the creation from everyone’s mind.

Inside every human body, there are things like sims card existed to store all the information and memories. They can be totally detached from the human body. There are also buttons use to control emotions. Therefore, the human bodies essentially left to itself with its physical attributes. All the thoughts and emotions can be totally separated from the body. Therefore, reforming the identity of the self. The body part can also be easily manipulated and changed if how people want it to be. They become a part that a not essentially defining who the human is. The memories themselves can be categorized based on their categories and can be chosen to deleted if that’s what people want to.

The vision of the whole world can be changed and manipulated according to different settings. People can change the color the world from their default settings to the colors they want the world to be. People can also choose to see all the detailed information regarding to the things they see or not depending on the settings. Whatever they see or hear will be transferred to descriptive infos and can directly be reaccessed through memory.

The properties are not owned but created as well. There is no need to purchase as they can directly create what they want based on imaginations. However, people are unable to access and own the things that others created unless they are able to envision it themselves. There are no government, no currency, and everyone is able to anything except doing anything to harm others. What people choose to do are also based on their own wish instead of anything driven by the society. Everyone is living based on their self-motivation in terms of what they want to do. The amount of time that each human being can live is counted and is the same.

Detaching from the materialistic world and shift the focus to the development of the mind. The creativity is highly encouraged and the machine like reproduction is discouraged.
