Outsourcing Visual Understanding
The year is 2132. The smartphone is extinct and in its place are wearables. The average person works for large megacorporations that boast a company culture of exponentially increasing speeds of productivity.
As a result, the average person has no time to ingest the world around them and are constantly looking for ways to streamline, offload, delegate, optimize and outsource the tedium of everyday life. IONIZE™ is a company that is releasing a product to answer this demand.
IONIZE is a work in design fiction based on "The Internet Has Become the External Hard Drive for Our Memories" by Daniel M. Wegner and Adrian F. Ward.
Design fiction is a practice in speculative design made to explore and criticize our possible future.

“For millennia humans have relied on one another to recall the minutiae of our daily goings-on. Now we rely on “the cloud”—and it is changing how we perceive and remember the world around us”
