Dial Calipers... From my point of view the PC and the microprocessor resulted in a giant economy that is pursuing technology production won't necessarily improve user satisfaction.

Using that perspective I think digital circuits which can be created in any controllable media is what I'm pursuing. I'm trying to make large circuits that represent the physical environment and the logic of the technical tasks that need to be done. My thinking is that next wave technology improvement will come from large environmental circuits that represent the human use of the physical environment.

I see the pursuit of smaller and smaller circuits as only one method of technology development best left to sophisticated global production. I think there will be cottage industry based on locally or "last mile" implementation of more esoteric but easy to understand systems.

The general purpose computer has resulted in overly complicated and inefficient for most regular people's actual computing needs.
