The Bioelectromagnetic Age

In 2040, many of the most innovative breakthroughs being developed to contribute to sustainability, productivity and quality of life involve the synergistic combination of knowledge related to biology, science and technology. One of the biggest breakthroughs that has been achieved is Bioelectromagnetic Design – the customised design of the electromagnetic characteristics of environments and technologies to enhance wellbeing and biological functioning.

Interest in Bioelectromagnetic Design had initially arisen in popularity, and necessity, as a result of many in the insurance industry refusing to cover health issues related to electromagnetic pollution, the growing incidences of Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity in many of the world’s populations, and a number of enlightened health agencies advocating the adoption of stronger protective guidelines.

It received a further boost when entrepreneurs recognised that if they took into account the suggestions of ‘early warning’ scientists when designing technologies and products, the risks they faced were reduced and their opportunities for disruptive innovation increased. The growing interest and efficacy of electromedicine further increased the appeal of such tactics, and by 2035 such approaches had become mainstream with the creation of more bioelectromagnetically healthy environments and technologies becoming the choice of the masses.

The knowledge that we can work in closer harmony with nature through having a better understanding of the biological effects of the electromagnetic spectrum, and can use that to our advantage and the advantage of the planet itself in its extended recovery period, is been a real blessing.

Die Kernfusions-Energiebox
Today I want to visit my children again. Since they live at the other end of Vienna, I will not walk or ride the old electric bike. At this longer distance, of course, I fly with my drone, where I have already fully charged the accumulator via the solar chassis of the vehicle. Actually, I want to use my new energy box, but the drone connections do not fit yet. The mobile energy box contains a nuclear fusion reactor and provides me with so much electrical energy to power my home, drone and much more. I like this energy producer, because he is handy small, produces no harmful radiation and he generates clean electricity for years. I can take it anywhere and use it where energy is needed. What we have already learned from the past few years, often the manufacturers of devices do not agree on which worldwide connectors are used. However, it is important that this energy box must be operable and contagious everywhere so that this power generator can be used sensibly.

O Futuro que escolhemos
In 2040, the world changed because people changed. The economy no longer revolves around overconsumption, but about what really matters: the well-being, balance and respect for the planet. Trade increasingly values sustainable products and large companies and has to take care of the environment and essential to grow. Health has improved, cure for cancer has been found. There are more green areas and more time to live not only for work. With less pollution and better quality of life, diseases will decrease. The best thing is that these changes happened because of every person in the world who can contribute small gestures such as avoiding waste and caring for the world, people will build a great movement that will guide people to grow more and support other types of trading. The sustainable future didn't happen by chance, we built it so let's work together and step by step we'll get there.

Der Anfang des modernen 21. Jahrhunderts
The morning sun is reflected in the glass facades of Vienna's green skyscrapers. It's summer 2040, and I start my day with a cup of coffee. My apartment is energy self-sufficient, fed by organic solar cells integrated into the windows. Instead of traffic jams and honking cars, silent magnetic tracks glide through the streets, while autonomous electric vehicles wait for solar charging stations. In the last 25 years, Europe has finally left fossil fuels behind. The 2030 Green Deal was the turning point: massive investments in renewable energy, CO₂-absorbing cities and a circular economy that has almost completely eliminated waste. My workplace is just a few minutes away – an innovation hub for AI-enabled research. AI has revolutionized bureaucracy, allowing people to focus on creative and strategic tasks. The four-day week is standard, and social security systems have been made more stable, safer and affordable for people. In the evening I visit with friends an open-air cinema in nature, where you can smell all the smells of the film, see all the visual effects in the environment and feel feelings, see.

Aprillikuu hommik
It's already a warm April morning in 2050 and I'm getting ready to go to work. "Please show us today's weather on your way to work," I say to my interactive wall, and with the sound of a horn, Konrad Mägi's spring views are replaced by a detailed weather report, which shows that a louder wind can blow between the houses just before the work place. I put on my spring jacket and walk outside. Although the automatic electric buses drive quite from my door to work and I can even get faster self-driving taxis, I decide to enjoy the beautiful weather and walk to work. During my walk, I wonder whether to start with a group work or a discussion – although we already have enough time to be awake, do Portuguese students, who are two hours behind us, bother to actively contribute to group work in a virtual studio so early? I have fun on my own, because in fact I know that once a European University has been established, there is probably an interest and desire to make the most of university time.
