Spirits in the Material World

*This is still in pre-production apparently...so your still "safe".





There is hope brother James.





Developers in the U.K. and developers at the U of N. Carolina and Duke are working on invisibility cloaks as we speak. These geniuses claim the technology and materials already exist. If, much like myself, you are wondering...What the fuck? It's material that is imperious to radar using mirrors that reflect their surroundings. It's not perfect but it sure expands the imagination a little bit. I guess it works best in the desert.


Brings up what Aristotle said about mankind thousand of years ago. To paraphrase, "People will basically misbehave anytime that they are sure no one is looking."

I know this is being designed as something for military defense but my mind wanders when it comes to the shortcomings of modern morality and the temptations of the "Impossible is Nothing" era. But one thing is for sure this thing is going to be expensive if it hits the free market. Good thing only wealthy people will be able to afford it, they never would abuse a vice like invisibilty.

Funny thought, what if these things start getting mass produced in Mexico. I wonder if a few of those would go missing, you could pretty much open the border at that point.

I'll stop there because we all know the possibilties of these things goes on for infinty.

SIDENOTES:

"Spirits in the Material World" is a shitty progressive rock song, but it's been really catchy to me lately. Kind of like "Dreamweaver" it's almost like songs have astrological signs...you know occasionally "Dreamweaver" is going to rock your world while you're doing dishes one of these days. Meanwhile sometimes it's so bad you just have to laugh.

Anyways, that's what Sting has been doin' to me these days.
