The interviewer said that everyone who'd been asked the question so far had said that they wanted to go into the past. But, the person being interviewed said she'd like to go to the future. "Either a 100 or 150 years into the future," she asserted. I had a moment to wonder what in particular about the future interested her. It turned out she wanted to go to into the future-- but not too far into the future-- so she could go to a family reunion. She started talking about what interested her about the future reunion, but my phone rang, so I had to turn off the radio to answer the phone (Yes, I'm not much of a multi-tasker, but I WAS also driving). By the time I turned the radio on again, the lady had finished talking, so I didn't get to hear more about what interested her. Wanting to think about it further, I turned the radio off and asked myself: what would *I* be interested in checking out in the future? (I would definitely choose to go to the future). I once read in a history book that the seeds of the future are usually in full view in the present, but are very difficult to identify b/c they haven't yet evolved into the forms that will massively change things. I see Project NML as not only about looking for the seeds of the future in the media and technology moments of today. But, also as about seeking to identify and create experiences for learning the skills and mind-sets needed for participating in the world of today (Why? B/c it's those who are participating in the "what is" of our present, who are defining the "what will be" of our future). I wouldn't mind going 150 years into the future to find clues for further figuring out the NML project. The more students who are able to get into the driver's seat for creating our future, the better.
