All these gadgets, the phone and the computer, they expose the inside of your brain in a way that's bad.
The value of having a computer, to me, is that it'll remember everything you do. It's a databank.
In terms of the brain, you can in a crude way think of the human brain as a computer.
The computer is your passport, not only to the future but to knowing what's going around you.
What I'm really interested in is this idea of a 'brain co-processor' - a device that can record from, and deliver information to, so many points in the brain, with a computational infrastructure in between - a computer that can process the information and compute exactly what needs to be restored.
If you're using a computer as an artist and expressing your personal vision, I think your personal vision comes through.
There's more noise that comes with wearable computing, things that let us take pictures every 30 seconds as we walk around living our lives, and a huge number more photos per person will exist.
If you look through the history of wearables, I was named the father of wearable computing, or the world's first cyborg. But the definition of wearable computing can be kind of fuzzy itself.

What the computer in virtual reality enables us to do is to recalibrate ourselves so that we can start seeing those pieces of information that are invisible to us but have become important for us to understand.
The purpose of technology is not to confuse the brain but to serve the body.
