OPENING AUTHORITY (ΚΑΙΝΟΥΡΓΙΑ ΑΡΧΗ)

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

The digital age that should mark people’s improved and more comfortable lives has shifted a balance of modern human beings. Any real feeling and experience is now considered obsolete and anything we are new to try, banal. Social networks determine our relationships, which either do not expand or do not evolve to a large extent in their absence. At the same time, society suffers from difficult economic problems. Corrupt governments of states could only bring the situation to the end of the barley. A barbour that can only be crossed with real values. But also. Ethical principles are missing from governments, civil servants, education, young people from all over the world. Every act is considered normal as long as it satisfies our egoism. And if this egoism leads to at least one subtle spiritual investigation or an attempt to rehabilitate the labour market, we are lucky. Because most of them imitate the prominence and dreams. Most try to win the beauty when it should not have a place in their lives. What beauty do we talk to? Each defines it differently. The issue is that what is now considered to be a “coul” is often the one that destroys the whole. But everything is good! The cigarettes in each recess are scattered, such as margarites on a mountain pasture, and the graffiti are fired in the urban galleries, making a spectacle... What beautiful our cities are! Car smoke does not disturb us. Forgotten bins do not tempt us. It is enough that our cities are not flooded by climate change. It is enough that COP27 did not discuss us at all, but about something bitter African farmers who cannot feed their children.

If at least half of these problems could be solved by 2040, I would be happy. But we will find the values to bridge the gap between modern realities and real life?

Utopija budućnosti
I see a future in harmony with nature, in a clean environment, an economically correct system. I would like everyone to have the right of access to health services. I would like to see greater control over the serving of meals, stricter penalties for those who commit serious criminal offences, more effective courts and more credibility for schools.

Oaza sigurnosti i prilika
I want a future that is more certain and opportunities that are more accessible to all. I wish for people with happy faces who spend more time with their friends and family, and less time with non-white people in business. I wish for a future in which the focus is not so much on the material as on the spiritual. I want mental health to be as vital as physical health. I wish peace, love and happiness.

Utopia
A totally different world, where there are no differences, where there is no fight against the extracommunity, where any person can walk and live their lives peacefully. A world where climate change no longer exists, and where lobbies who are ready to do anything to gain more power no longer exist. The future I want will never exist, the future is worrying.

Il mondo peggio
Surely the fashion world should adapt to the recycling of fabrics and clothing already made and no longer produce the same quantities that are produced today, so fashion would be much more oriented to secondhand and textile recycling. Private mobility should be reduced only where it is indispensable, so the public transport network should be completely expanded this time, leaving room for new means of commuting. I fear that by 2040 the climate has changed a lot, I imagine that there will be many problems related to water supply, so I imagine that there will be water rationing not so much for citizens as for companies and industries. The world of agriculture will therefore also be affected by the new, obviously warmer climate, and therefore cultures will be rethought and modified according to the new temperatures. Even at the political level I imagine that we are going to create an Orwellian situation in which states will form new alliances and coalitions and go towards a clearer block division, even the exchange of goods between the various blocks will be much more complex.
