Does Art Imitate Life Or Shape It?

Anyone who has to travel this week, watched an episode of Star Trek, knows about the usage of iris scanners replacing fingerprints in the NYPD, or simply dares to think differently, will appreciate this blog.

A creative talent or group of creatives, can be one of the most innovative thinkers on the planet, maybe just for having the ability to ‘plant a seed’ for a business to figure out later on.

Three things come to mind; the ideas were seeds planted by artists, and manifested into reality years later...for good and bad:


Airport Body Scanners - “Total Recall”



Cell Phones/BlueTooth - “Start Trek”
















Iris Scanners (replacing fingerprint records) - “Minority Report”




Given the recent advancements in the video game industry, I am poised to see if 'being inside the actual game' will in fact one day become a reality:



Sounds crazy? Well, so did the concept of voice over talent being able to work with you directly on voice over projects. Seven years later, Voice123 still runs very strong because of the creative, professional voice talent, and business clients who post amazing work, preferring to deal with no intermediaries. It gives light to the famous quote:
What is now proved was once only imagined.
- William Blake
