You are quite right, ----- even there is pointers to new technology and jobs, an Icon is more important than the Digital revolution in this concept.
An Icon is more important than the options you point to, even the economy this will bring and the progress this will happen.
Thank academics who rather talk about fantasy worlds based on misunderstood technology, why this lead is occupied with fantasy meshworks and dreamlike emaginations of a world that hopefully never come, ----- ask why they even bother about it, when this mean that no designer muse even think about saying anything shuld be better, than the 20 year old meshwork. Architecture have closed it's eyes and fear, that now the emporor don't wear any clotches, ------ that he don't wear anything underneath that even.
When architecture again open it's eyes again, there truely is an option that what we se is Chaos, ----- in terms of architectural trends this is far better than revolusionising an industrie, as architecture is a social game not somthing that deal with producing the better world you ask.
