So we use all the senses.

So aesthetic, as it was used by the Greek philosopher Aristotle, Plato, was exactly this, what is perceived by the five senses.

So I think you need all the senses.

So you will always need screens.

Now, the screen of the future could be an hologram.

The screen of the future could be something flexible on your clothing that doesn't look as a screen anymore.

But there will be always space for this visual interaction.

What we need to make sure, though, and I think is where you are going with your question, is that the...

This screen is not what focuses all our attention.

We need to make sure that we interact with the world surrounding us, from people to nature to everything in between, in the most meaningful way, in the most human way.

And we need technology there, once again, helping us, enabling us in this kind of interaction.

And so...

Thinking about the wearables that are about to come, they're already there, but they will grow more and more in the coming years.

The wearables for sure will help us freeing up our attention from a screen looking around.

Glasses, as an example, will give us the possibility of still looking at people and things and nature differently.

But having all the information, eventually AI and the cloud and technology can give you to amplify that experience.

So that's just one example.

But earphones, earbuds, you know, with AI will give us the possibility to be our companion, our mentors.

And then I can still look around.

Actually, I will finally be able to look more at the world surrounding me with an audio device that is helping me navigate in the world, both with knowledge and facts and data and information, as well as also through an emotional engagement.
