Technology is here to stay, however, not everyone can understand the technology that we take for granted today.
Take, for example, Adam Lisagor and Roxana Altamirano from Sandwich, for example, who have filmed a set of videos called Computer Show, which is basically a talk show set in 1983 with guests from 2015. These helpful videos are perfect for those who need a little help getting their head around the world of technology.
Because of the fact that the show is set in 1983, there is plenty of awkward hair and clothing to look at and there are even VHS tapes present. However, while everyone else is living in 1983, the guests are tech geniuses from our time, there to shed light on some of the technology to come.
The show itself is set to look like a popular show from the '80s called Computer Chronicles, which basically documented the rise of the personal computer until 2002, when the show ended.
So far, there are two Computer Show episodes to enjoy, with the first being called "Communities," which discusses the idea of online communities. The guest of the show is appropriately Alexis Ohanian, one of the co-founders of Reddit. Ohanian baffles the hosts of the show with the idea of Reddit, after which he pulls out his iPhone, which truly amazes the hosts.
The second episode is called "Arts" and details the idea of creating "computer art." The episode also looks at the idea of the Internet, which, of course, also confuses the show hosts.
In general, during the show, there is plenty of hilarity to enjoy. You can check out the first episode below, or head on over to the YouTube channel for the first two.
