Timeholes

Filmmaker Ben Mallaby takes us from 2014 to the year 2015 in a video that looks at the breakthrough of time travel in a more realistic manner than most science fiction tales. The lofty promise of a new technology is often supplanted by less noble uses when such technology becomes available to the general public. Remember when these newfangled computers, and later the internet, were going to be used to facilitate scientific research, global communication, and education? And now it’s full of selfies and cat videos. Do you think the development of time travel will be any different? (via Boing Boing)
