I dunno about that Google Glasses deal, part of me finds it a sort of half life where you are on line even when you’re off somewhere else and while I can bet Robocop can use it, how much info do you want? I mean, isn’t it creepy somebody looking at you and know everything these is to know about you?
The entire concept of privacy seems to have disappeared from the conversation, it doesn’t exist. And whatever you think you’ve gained from it, you sure ain’t gained enough since we all exist in some other world and any way, Google Glass doesn’t look cool.
Except in this video where FKA twigs finds the correct use of Google Glass to enhance her balletic dance moves, it is a gorgeous thing and not just the sound : FKA twigs creates a concept film for Google Glass, working both as performer and director the piece is set to a re-scored version of her songs ‘Video Girl’ and ‘Glass & Patron’. Twigs uses Glass to call upon references and inspirations as well as incorporating the device into the actual filming.”
She uses Google Glass to play “Video Girl” and then to learn the dance steps she conjures the London-Swedish contemporary dancer Benjamin Milan, and it twins her up and then quadruples her. Twigs is a stunning, dramatic figure of grace and sensuality it suggest (which is probably the reason for being) a certain gracefulness in the ungraceful Google Glass certainly does not posses.
