Dreaming the Impossible Stream

Dec2011: Thank you, Google X. It's time. Get ready for full-speed downhill AMS-HUD as promised!

Oct2010: What is it like to be an early 21st century AR-enhanced human proto-cyborg, grappling with meta-cognition streams and architectures via such rudimentary, crude, manual, archaic extended cognition prosthetics and pathetically low-res brain decoding hacks? What is going on inside our EyeTaps? What will it be like to login to such a human? To query the human cognition grid with apps like local mind, naturally and stylishly floating transparently before your eyes?

This site is also about hacking in the direction of a platform-independent, universal activity stream aggregation protocol with the following characteristics and features (perhaps even founded upon a new kind of info-diaspora: The unfettered open extensibility of sweetcron; the analytical adaptability of peoplebrowsr; the rich conversational engagement and flow of friendfeed; the personality of 12seconds; the addictiveness of twitter; the behavioral lock-in of facebook; the social credibility of linked in; the VITAL multimedia capabilities of Phreadz; the instantaneous event acquisition ability of QIK; the aggregation and filtering capabilities of Cliqset and Miio; the simplicity of use and visual fluidity of tumbler, posterous, and soup.io; the insanely productive authenticity of Google Buzz; the digital intuition of My6Sense; the social salience of Your Version; and some kind of adaptive instantiation of the advertising revenue circulation model extemporaneously dubbed User As Content.

Let's see. What else? Oh, yeah, an easy to use layout tool for anyone to design their own attention management system heads up display (AMS-HUD) console for all of the above; fully compatible with COTS augmented reality head mounted displays from the likes of lumus optical, vuzix, kopin golden-i, zioneyez -- and now even Google X, if rumors hold true. Finally, the ability to log into any human, any time, or as color innocuously puts it, pay a friendly visit. That should keep us busy for a little while, while we wait for the AMS-HUD contacts to go into full COTS production. Ready? Go!
