Site of the Day for Monday, August 19, 2002
Phrenicea.com
"Predicting the ultimate outcome of the Internet and biotechnology
revolutions"
If the List's gentle members find this first day of the workweek a wearying
prospect, the dizzying view of the future presented by the Phrenicea
website may provoke both amusement and alarm.
"Pronounced fren-EEE-shuh, [Phrenicea] is a vision of our future - a
21st-century prophecy predicting the ultimate outcome of the Internet and
biotechnology revolutions. This site is intended to present the Phrenicea
vision of the future as well as provide a focal point for a lively exchange
of ideas concerning the future as well as the all-important, trend-setting
present. The name Phrenicea is a contraction of the words phrenic (of the
mind) and panacea (cure all)." - from the website
From 'polynutriment' to 'solar electric trains', the site posits a
riveting, albeit improbable sketch of the future. This benign but almost
"Matrix-like" panorama includes such topics as money, marriage, music and
mega-farms. Don't miss the link to the General Motors 1964 Futurama exhibit
tucked in the "Oops" link on the left.
Interface with the website for a highly imaginative look at the future at:
