Hours spent in front of the computer, uncomfortable and spine-damaging sitting positions, fingers constantly wandering around the keyboard and more. Today, the working life of an ordinary employee passes under these conditions. The spread of the work from home system with the pandemic makes the conditions much more uncomfortable because most people work at home on the sofa or even in bed…
Does all this have an effect on our health? Of course yes. But will all this affect how we look in 2100? Probably not. But according to an office furniture company, all this will change the way people look…
How Does? We did not fully understand, but the claims of the company named [email protected] are as follows;
This company has created a 3D model called Anna with some experts (we don’t know who they are) and based on some research (we don’t know what research). They say this model shows what we will look like in the 2100s. The reason for the ‘change’ is our working conditions from home…
Let’s take a look at Anna;
This ‘research’ tells us:
- Anna’s eyes will be bloodshot because she is always looking at the screen and working in inappropriate light conditions.
- Anna will slouch from sitting in inappropriate positions and will also become obese.
- His hands will be like claws because long hours of movement such as using the mouse, phone and keyboard will damage his hands and wrists.
- There will also be edema and varicose-like structures in their legs because inactivity etc…
Now, the effects mentioned here are partially true. We know that working/spending time in front of a computer or in non-ergonomic conditions has effects on our body. Humpback, deterioration of the eyes, joint disorders… But these are things that have already been observed, and if you live like this for a few years in your life, not in the year 2100, many of them can happen to you anyway…
Moreover…
We do not know exactly how technological equipment and usage patterns will change in addition to working conditions in the coming years. We have some ideas; for example, after Apple Vision Pro ‘can the screens disappear?’ We encountered the question.
Or, as artificial intelligence tools develop, maybe we won’t be able to spend so much time with them doing the work that requires us to spend hours in front of the computer… Or maybe 10 years from now there will be such a great discovery that we can only work for 20 years with the power of thought…
Meanwhile, the climate and the environment will also affect our lives, our mobility and our needs… As a result, there is always the possibility that the future will turn our daily routines upside down, and we do not know how this will happen. As a matter of fact, we recommend that you do not give credit to the annoying visuals with the phrase ‘People will look like this in XX years’ that comes up from time to time. Have a laugh.
