Could Elon Musk become the next Steve Jobs?

 https://novamoney.com/blog/is-elon-musk-the-next-steve-jobs

Steve_Jobs was born in the mid 1950s and Elon_Musk was born in the early 1970s. Jobs had quite a head start on Musk, but both of them reached the top of their game in their respective businesses, before the age of 50.

The Metaverse Is Coming: We May Already Be in It

 https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/the-metaverse-is-coming-we-may-already-be-in-it

Not everyone will notice things that will get them to consider that they might already be in someones constructed reality.

https://hackernoon.com/metaverse-imaginaries-sci-fi-vignette-1-the-future-of-work-land-investing-in-the-metaverse

Fortunately, there are some very curious people like Rizwan+Virk that have noticed several peculiar things about The Nature Of Reality. (TNOR)

Abraham Lincoln (miniseries) and some Synchronicity

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abraham_Lincoln_(miniseries)

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt17079876 , https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7QD56iTkceA H Channel 

A documentary such of this can be quite informative however, there will be several omissions.

https://www.sj-r.com/story/entertainment/2022/02/20/documentary-abraham-lincoln-debuts-history-channel-doris-kearns-goodwin/6872689001

That's because it's not suppose to be a metaphysical documentary. 

https://www.salon.com/2022/02/20/abraham-lincoln-review-history-lincolns-dilemma-apple-tv

Yet, there are some very peculiar things about the story beyond the official story. 

https://www.laughingplace.com/w/articles/2022/02/20/the-making-of-the-history-channels-abraham-lincoln-cinema-doc

Coincidence and synchronicity can reveal a larger picture of reality.

The_Tall_Target was released in 1951, several years before people would start to notice some peculiar synchronicity between the names Lincoln & Kennedy.

"New York Police Sergeant John Kennedy once guarded Abraham Lincoln for 48 hours while he was campaigning for President of the United States, and came away deeply impressed by the man. Kennedy has infiltrated a cabal and discovered that an assassination attempt will be made as the president-elect makes his way by train via Baltimore to Washington, DC. His boss, Superintendent Simon G. Stroud, dismisses the threat as "hogwash", as does Caleb Jeffers, a militia colonel with whom Stroud is meeting. Kennedy resigns on the spot to try to foil the conspirators on his own. Having already sent a copy of his report to the Secretary of War, he sends a telegram to Lincoln, urgently requesting a meeting in Baltimore.

On February 22, 1861, he boards the train bound for Washington, where Inspector Reilly is to give him his train ticket. However, Kennedy cannot find his friend. Without a ticket, he is forced to get off by conductor Homer Crowley, and there are no more tickets to be had. As the train starts off, Kennedy sprints after it and climbs aboard anyway..." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Tall_Target#Plot

"Lyndon B. Johnson's tenure as the 36th president of the United States began on November 22, 1963 following the assassination of President Kennedy and ended on January 20, 1969." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Presidency_of_Lyndon_B._Johnson

From the Storyboard to Digital Previsualization, etc.

The Storyboard has been around for quite a long time. 

https://www.previspro.com/storyboards

https://www.frameforge.com

Where as Digital_previsualization is still relatively new.

https://apps.apple.com/us/app/previs-pro-storyboard-fast/id1468484655

https://www.perforce.com/blog/vcs/3d-previsualization-software

Eventually holographic previsualization will become commonplace, as an advanced form of CGI.

Then at a certain point, some people might start to ponder that this world might be part of someones holographic planetarium.

The_Thirteenth_Floor is still a very good depiction of linking to a full immersion VR system. So much so that if you didn't realize that you are linked to a temporary sensory reality, you might actually think that you are in the real world. There is a timer that is set for a couple of hours so that a person won't starve to death and can return do some other "real world" things. Of course the ending of the movie implies that this world might be part of someones VR movie or Metaverse.

H. R. Giger and the ALIEN, ETc.

 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H._R._Giger , https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0317592

For many it's a monstrous predatory creature. HRG came up with the idea of a biomechanical being in the 1970s. https://www.hrgiger.com/top100.htm , https://www.hrgiger.com/alien4a.htm

https://www.artsy.net/article/artsy-editorial-nightmarish-works-hr-giger-artist-alien

The story or mythology behind the Alien is that its a reproducing creature with augmentation. This would imply that very advanced nanotechnology continues with every new generation. 

https://www.hrgiger.com/alien.htm , https://www.hrgigermuseum.com/index2.php?option=shortmovies

https://www.filmsite.org/alie.html

http://www.littlegiger.com/movies/index.html , http://www.littlegiger.com/limited/index.html

Some of the artwork can get very dark and strange and should be for a mature viewers. Unless you want to have some nightmares.

http://www.littlegiger.com/books/index.html

However, HRG produced a level of artwork that remains quite unique. Perhaps the Alien creature is the most known, but HRG has provided quite a diverse range of artwork.

Of course the ALIEN series of movies range from practical effects to digital effects. CGI can always provide a nice touch, especially when it would almost be impossible to use piratical effects. However, physical movie sets still help things to not all become part of the CGI blur.

https://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/1883398061/littlegigersite?creative=125581%26camp=2321&link_code=as1

HRG started to develop his artwork during the 1960s and 70s.

https://www.hrgiger.com/alien.htm , https://www.hrgigermuseum.com

HRG not only created a world of unique art, but a universe of strange and mysterious things.
