Computational X

I like this technique from Kevin Kelly to simply add “computational” before any current practice to imagine its future. Computational biology, physics, chemistry already exist; but how about computational cuisine, real estate, politics, etc? It becomes surprisingly compelling.

Similar to Chris Dixon’s prediction advice for the Internet: [“Anything it hasn’t yet dramatically transformed, it will”](http://cdixon.org/2011/01/13/predicting-the-future-of-the-internet-is-easy-anything-it-hasnt-yet-dramatically-transformed-it-will/). We live in exciting times.
