As someone who runs a medialab at an art school it is fascinating how many people believe because they understood the general principle of a thing, it is therefore simple to just do it.

Many people seem to long for a magical technology that you could just pour over things and they will work out in the ways you wanted, while miraculously sensing the ways you didn't.

Those with the edge on the new tech will always be those who have a good understanding of it's limitations, because once a new thing comes around they immediately see the possibilities.
