This our our aim: To see the world with our mind, not our eyes. So much of what will affect us in the future is invisibly stashed on a connected landscape we're only now learning to feel. It will emerge from the complex, adaptive sea of links expanding around us. We must tune our own instincts for this power, which will make our moves almost effortless. The ever-sharp mental knife laid upon the thick challenges of a new age. There will be moments ahead for all of us - the most dangerous or terrifying or wonderful ones - in which things will happen that none of our old ideas or senses can help us understand.
