Comparing Clarke/Kubrick's 2001 To Now

Posted by Hemos on from the i'm-sorry-dave dept.

angkor wrote us about a recent Economist article that explores and compares the differences between Clarke/Kubrick's vision of 2001, and what we've got. Of course, I'd point out that the literary one wasn't meant to be a literal 2001; but this an interesting comparasion nonetheless.

    I'm still disappointed that New York wasn't turned into a maximum security prison in 1997 as predicted here!
