Cyberpunk Wagon

Cyberpunk Wagon

I think I've ranted before about how prior to the 20th century, individual transportation was a horse, group or work transportation was a wagon or coach. Somehow we got this disconnect beginning in the 20th century where every individual feels entitled, ever obligated to be hauled around like an emperor in a carriage with a full team of horses.

This picture definitely brings that observation to mind. I don't know what else to say, expect quote William Gibson (or was it Bruce Sterling?) - "The Street will find it's own uses for technology."

Indeed.

Thanks to the Make blog

It's Gibson: 'The street finds its own uses for things'.

Good find, BTW. ;)
