Finding an image to reflect what I’m currently thinking about technology has been particularly difficult, but I was pleased to be able to find the following. I am mulling over a more abstract construct of technology, where we consider technology not in the physical sense, but as a process of thought or action. These processes evolve too, as we find different and often better ways to do the tasks we do. I chose this image an analogy of how these processes change and evolve as we long for the promise of something better. Though the future is hazy and uncertain with unforeseen challenges, we continue to march forward.
