OPENING AUTHORITY (ΚΑΙΝΟΥΡΓΙΑ ΑΡΧΗ)

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?

La rivolta della natura
Waking up in the morning with the song of birds wandering in the sky, blue, as never before, free from the pollution that today deprives us of this. A world where plastic is no longer our life partner, where politicians look first at the lives of ordinary people, where the economy takes second place compared to respect for people, for the environment, where animals are not human slaves, where they are not food.

I see the future bleak, the different cultures that are not on the same page, crime will get much worse in the future. In addition, care, housing and other important things such as evidence will become even worse. More control through the digital world, a terrible future we are facing.

I will be celebrating 2040 in 15 years. It's not a very distant prospect. I would like to be able to move between cities and between countries at a faster speed, in modern and comfortable means of transport. I imagine the centers of large cities closed to vehicular traffic and in the urban tissue definitely more greenery. Turned into green rest zones and supplied with spring drinking water, the existing tram and bus stops would give shelter and bring people closer together. Citizen police patrols on bicycles/horses would take care of the order in the city. Unified [colour] electric transport would carry passengers to selected places. The number of grocery stores where products from farmers/breeders in the region would be available would be limited. Medical clinics and offices would be abolished. Health would be cared for by a selected medical caregiver together with a doctor. Official matters would be dealt with remotely.

Robots and AI take over the land and enslave the human race that feels like caged animals. Climate change wipes out the earth as we know it. Food is now just insects and species have dwindled to a few survivors
