Exploring the Social Imagination

Can there be a progressive social imagination...? Revisited!


Yes, its been a while. Moved to a new location and anybody that has moved knows what that is like. In the meantime, been watching a Netflix series called, "Revolution"; guess, it even played out on a major network from 2012-2014.

Anyway, with all that is going on these days in terms of advances in new technology, global world order and or just plain new order as in a brave new world order and or new (er) social imagination, this series has a not so new take who is behind it all... but, a fascinating vision on how it might happen by means of super technology which gets out of the hands of those who thought they had control. Though quite violent with some sex it is watchable for adults only. 

So, check it out and talk to you later. Oh, and, when watching it... ask yourself whether or not there can be a progressive change in the social imagination or not.

The answer is No... there is no thing new under the sun! So, there is nothing progressive. You say what about new technology, doesn't that change us in a progressive way? Well, if you watch the series above... the answer is NO!
