Hearing 1-1 -- Bang on a Can

The Face of Tomorrow

Speaking of the future: This artist morphs the pictures of people who live in cities around the world to try to guess what some of the citizens of those metropoli will look like in a hundred years or so (i.e., just in time for this week's Weekend Assignment time capsules to be decanted). If the artist's estimations are correct, we can say this: On average, the people of the future will be cuter. Now, that's progress!

Also noticed the $15 price tag, though interesting. You can do what I did and DIY using the software at http://www.groovyweb.uklinux.net/Morpheus.php?page_name=photo%20morphing%20software for free instead.

I'm lookinh forwards to a cuter future :)

So, in the future we will all have strange ghost hair that looks like a blue aura? What is it with the hair?
