Internet Human Human Internet Map
Internet Human | Human Internet Map
In the next ten years we will see the growth of an entirely new Internet. The Internet human | human Internet map invites you to reimagine how people will access and interact with network technologies. Humans are shaping the future of this new human Internet, which will be designed to enhance and amplify our minds and bodies. Think of this map as a guide to orient you to the technological building blocks of Internet experience and to help you think systematically about the future as you explore how these technologies combine to produce new capacities for productivity, connectivity, communication and participation.
The map traces the new geometry of the Internet shaped in the next decade by four new potentials:
- The capacity for FLOW, as technologies work together to create a seamless environment for human interaction
- The ability to SENSE, as human-machine interfaces leverage all our human senses to become more intuitive and even invisible
- The facility to CONTROL, as we amplify our human ability to direct, redirect, and restrain a more dynamic and organic Internet
- The proclivity to EMERGE, as the Internet unleashes itself from its creators’ intentions and develops in unexpected and transformative ways
Use this map to raise questions about how your life and work may change and what new opportunities and disruptions may be unveiled for your organization in the coming decade.
