  • Hooded penitents in a night-time procession during Holy week in Seville, Spain. Street processions are organized in most Spanish towns each evening, from Palm Sunday to Easter Sunday. People carry statues of saints on floats or wooden platforms, and an atmosphere of mourning can seem quite oppressive to onlookers.

  • On Green Island, a former prison island off the coast of SE Taiwan where political prisoners were incarcerated and re-educated during the unnervingly recent White Terror. There's actually still a high-security prison on the island, but it only holds 200 inmates (actual felons, not polital prisoners), as opposed to the couple thousand of earlier decades..Now it's mostly a tourist destination. We visited in the off season in March, thereby avoiding the 5,000-10,000 tourists that inundate the little place daily, though, being the off season, we had to contend instead with intermittent cold rain and high winds.

  • TV of tomorrow. Long-exposure photograph of a TV monitor being wheeled through a corridor in the MIT Media Lab. The monitor on the left shows researcher Andrew Lippmann. Set up in 1985 at the USA's Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the Media Lab aims to invent the multimedia technologies of the future. According to Lippmann and colleagues, tomorrow's TVs will combine computer technology with digital transmission to create an interactive system that could make conventional print and broadcast media redundant. Wall-sized 3-D screens that respond to the human voice could offer millions of TV channels, personalized news and interactive dramas.  (1995)

  • Borrowing from Star Wars, engineers at NASA's Ames Research Center, just south of San Francisco, CA, are developing a personal assistant robot that can hover over an astronaut's shoulder in space, or work at the direction of an astronaut in situations too dangerous for a human. Floating weightlessly, the machine could have many uses: patrolling corridors for gas leaks, reminding astronauts about the tasks on their to-do lists, or serving as a communication link when people are busy using both hands. From the book Robo sapiens: Evolution of a New Species, page 124.
