This film, made in the late 1960's, tells what future homes will look like in the 21st century or 2001 to be exact. Very funny! Narrated by Walter Cronkite.

Instead these benefits all go to a few instead of being divided among many is the unfortunate reality.

I love it. I watched this episode when it was first broadcast (as well as the series The 20th Century) back in the 1960s. I find it amusing that I am sitting here watching the same episode on The Internet from a room in Victorian home built in 1871. So much for the houses and furniture that look like they came out if The Jetsons. Like most images of a predicted future, the futurists forget what will be preserved from the past as we move into the future.

@briane173 Жыл бұрын

I'd always snickered at that. For some reason they thought we were gonna just lay waste to everything older than 1999 vintage and we'd all be living like the Jetson's. Frankly the architecture of new homes today aren't far off from what they were back then, except that instead of looking like Frank Lloyd Wright designed them, they're designed to retain the flavor of the environment and history they're built in. As a consequence even newer homes look vintage in places. Go to NE and you find people enjoying the trappings of 21st Century technology from the comfort of their 300-year-old cottage or estate. This vision of the 21st Century obliterates the influences of the past and pretends the entire landscape will look like something from _Blade Runner_ or _Demolition Man._

I grew up in a lovely old home that my great grandmother saw being built when she was a girl. There was something magical about that house and we owned it for over 60 years. My mom grew up there as well. When they sold back in 2006, the people who bought were just interested in dollars and no family has lived there since. It makes me sad knowing that. I loved that home and just want someone to love it like we do. I have many happy memories there.

Now that we are more than 20 years into that century, we can see that the predictors were both correct & incorrect in their predictions! Most people still live in the same old, wooden houses; drive newer, but still gas combustion cars & commute to jobs; miles away! Except for advances in communication, far less than they predicted, has changed!

Technology took space, mechanics, records and tapes, bulky CRT screens, energy, they generated heat and were heavy and expensive, and that was true even up to the early 2000s when TV was still analogue, you watched a movie on disc, listened to music on a stereo, went to your PC to get online, or got out your CD collection that you’d converted onto your iPod via your PC to listen to music. It wasn’t until we got flat low energy screens, efficient batteries, fast computing, tiny affordable solid state memory and super fast wireless data connection that we could even conceive of small digital devices doing it all and that’s only occurred in the last 15 years. For 2001 they did ok.

I looked up the origins of microwave ovens and found an article "A Brief History of the Microwave Oven" in IEEE Spectrum (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers. ) "at the 1933 World’s Fair in Chicago, Westinghouse demonstrated a 10-kilowatt shortwave radio transmitter that cooked steaks and potatoes between two metal plates." I had heard or read about someone finding a candy bar melting in their pocket while testing radar components. Early ovens (1940s and 50s) were about the size of a refrigerator and used so much power that heating up a meal would likely pop ALL the household fuses in the average home of the era.

I wouldn't say they overestimated, they just estimated according to what they knew. After all, the internet is one of the most incredible inventions in human history.

One device which we use to learn, network, socialize, and entertain ourselves. So after hearing this guy gush about an inflatable chair, I'd say they didn't overestimate; they simply estimated incorrectly.

Something to help, most doors are pull on the outside and push one the inside. The reason for this is because there was a fire in a club once, and everybody crowded near the door. Unfortunately, the door was a pull door from the inside and the people couldn't get out because the door had no room to open. So now most doors are required to be a push door on the inside for easier escape access. I think that doors that aren't like that are illegal in some places.

@@laylacox77 I didn't know the history but assumed it was for safety. But why do doors in private houses open to the inside?

I bet they never imagined homes being as expensive as they are today. In the early 60’s a great house cost $ 60 K. The average home now is $250 K. And property taxes so high you can barely afford to pay them.

Funny how these looks at the future always seem to be stuck in the aesthetic of when they were produced...

What “aesthetic”? That rounded house was considered bad taste back then, and the “prefab” houses were recognized as just mobile homes referred to in a fancy way. They might have been popular in California, but no one but California thinks that anyone there has good taste.

It's unavoidable. Go back to the Fifties and their "Home of Tomorrow" had a full-size humanoid robot to do the job of a Roomba.
