I Have Seen the Future..

and after an epic binge on Deep Space 9, the future looks weirdly like the present but slightly off. Case in point - the humble mug. A design classic, unchanged since pretty much the dawn on time. It holds liquid, it does this very efficiently - why change it? BECAUSE IT IS  NOT SPACEY ENOUGH.

See the subtle difference? That's the added futuristic spaciness. In fact, why have a boring old book, when you can have a book that looks like a walnut that apparently lives on a bathmat? Come on people, embrace the 26th Century! This could become an obsession....
