Part II, “In Other News: The Media”

Out with the old — In with the new?! I don’t think so! At least not yet! And we better hope that’s not the case! This is necessary if anything for mass adoption to take off for Magic Leap.

I mean didn’t you love the idea of the smartphone when it first arrived? The age of the 2-Dimensional Flat panel screens is almost over! Enter the “New Age” — The Age of the HoloWeb!

We first got our news from the Town Criers and the couriers, then we got the Newspaper, and as technology advanced we moved on from the Print to the Telegraph and then the Radio. By the 1940s we sat in theaters to see film reels cut together, with a modest sense of patriotism from characters such as Donald Duck and Bugs Bunny advocating to buy War Bonds (what a weird time to be alive). By the 1950s, Technology marched onwards to have the Theater be seen in the comfort of your own living room with the Television. And despite the advancement, we all forget that it was only in the 1990s that the Information Age first began. Nearly 30 years later, we’ve only begun to step away from the Printing Press, the Radio Transceivers, the Cable Boxes, and are still gripped to our Monitors, gazing upon the unfolding story of the new Sixth Age in the Media evolution with Magic Leap, Inc.

Televisions, Pages, even Web Pages: All of them have boundaries that you have to maneuver around in order to see what’s what in the Media. With Magic Leap, the news is no longer bound by the screen or page in terms of size and scope.

In our new HoloWeb, the 21st Century we’ve dreamed about will become more of a reality when it comes to the Media.

With Magic Leap, you have full control over the size of the media: no scrolls, no screens, no Print!

It’s all in your hands… LITERALLY! Just maneuver with your own arms to see which segment of an article to see next without having to use the scroll of a mouse or the flip of a newspaper.
