A Time of Magic

Just three hundred years ago if you were able to lift a wand, point it at a piece of glass and watch someone on the other side of the world through that piece of glass, you’d have been burnt at the stake, yet today we take television for granted.

Just thirty years ago, if you’d walked along the street animatedly talking to an imaginary friend, you’d have been locked up, yet today hands-free mobile phones are commonplace.

This blog will attempt to bring back that sense of wonder in the things that surround us every day but which not so long ago were considered magic or at best science fiction.
