THIS LIBRARY WILL FOCUS ON THE EXCHANGE OF INFORMATION, LIKE MOST LIBRARIES, BUT IN A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT WAY THAN THE TYPICAL NORM THAT WE HAVE EXPERIENCED. BOOKS AND COMPUTERS AS WE KNOW THEM WILL NOT BE PRESENT AT THIS LIBRARY OF THE FUTURE. INSTEAD, INFORMATION CAN BE ACCESSED FROM A CLOUD SYSTEM. THE INFORMATION STORED IN THE CLOUD SYSTEM CAN LITERALLY BE ANYTHING. ANYONE WHO VISITS THE LIBRARY CAN UPLOAD THOUGHTS, INFORMATION, MEMORIES, DATA, PERSONAL EXPERIENCES AND THESE WILL BE ACCESSIBLE TO ANYONE WHO WANTS TO SEE THEM. THIS METHODOLOGY ALLOWS FOR PEOPLE TO LEARN ABOUT LITERALLY ANYTHING THAT THEY WANT TO. ADDITIONALLY THIS ALLOWS PEOPLE TO EXPERIENCE OTHER PEOPLE’S EXPERIENCES AND MEMORIES SO THAT THEY CAN LIVE VICARIOUSLY THROUGH THEM OR GET TO KNOW THEM IF THEY HAVE PASSED AWAY OR HAVE MOVED.
THE INFORMATION CAN BE UPLOADED AND DOWNLOADED (EXPERIENCED) IN A VARIETY OF WAYS. VARIOUS “UPLOAD STUDIOS” WILL BE AVAILABLE AND THEY WILL RANGE IN SIZE AND USE. SOME WILL BE TINY ROOMS, ALMOST LIKE PHOTO BOOTHS, WHERE PEOPLE CAN SIT AND RECORD THEMSELVES. THERE WILL ALSO BE ROOMS STRICTLY FOR VOICE RECORDINGS WHERE PEOPLE CAN SPEAK AND WHATEVER THEY SAY WILL BE CONVERTED TO TEXT AND WILL BE MAINTAINED AUDIBLY. FURTHERMORE, THERE WILL BE LARGER STUDIOS WHERE PEOPLE CAN BE RECORDED WITH A CAMERA CREW IN MORE OF AN INTERVIEW STYLE. THERE WILL BE OTHER LARGER ROOMS WHERE PEOPLE CAN WEAR MOTION CAPTURE SUITS AND CAN MOVE, THE DATA BEING RECORDED. THIS WILL LET PEOPLE RECORD MANNERISMS AND MORE BROADLY RECORD MOVEMENT LIKE BALLET OR DANCING. FINALLY, INFORMATION CAN BE UPLOADED IN A SYSTEM OF DIRECT TRANSLATION, WHERE THE PERSON CAN BE HOOKED UP TO A MACHINE, AND WHILE ASLEEP, INFORMATION STORED IN THEIR BRAINS AND MEMORY, WILL BE UPLOADED DIRECTLY TO THE CLOUD SYSTEM.
TO ACCESS THE INFORMATION PEOPLE CAN READ, LISTEN OR WATCH THE INFORMATION REMOTELY THROUGHOUT THE LIBRARY ON PORTABLE AND MOVABLE HOLOGRAPHIC DEVICES. THESE DEVICES CAN BE CHECKED OUT AS WELL BY PATRONS OF THE LIBRARY. ADDITIONALLY, THERE WILL BE A RANGE OF DIFFERENT SIZED THEATERS WHERE INFORMATION CAN BE SEEN AND HEARD BY VARYING AMOUNTS OF PEOPLE. VIRTUAL REALITY AND AUGMENTED REALITY CENTERS WILL BE ACCESSIBLE AT THE LIBRARY FOR PEOPLE TO BE IMMERSED IN AN EXPERIENCE OR A MEMORY. FINALLY, PEOPLE CAN ALSO BE ATTACHED TO THE THOUGHTS AND MEMORIES OF ANOTHER PERSON WHILST THEY ARE ASLEEP AS WELL. THIS WOULD BE THE MOST IMMERSIBLE EXPERIENCE AND THE MOST IDEAL TO BE ABLE TO EXPERIENCE THOUGHTS AS WELL AS MEMORIES.
