14 Jan Bowie Predicting Power of Internet

Posted at 05:17h in Design, Life Style, Music by

In this BBC Newsnight interview from 1999 David Bowie talks to Jeremy Paxman about going to meet Tony Blair in stilettos, his alter egos – and makes some incredibly accurate predictions about the potential of the internet.

Bowie died 3 years ago this past Jan. 10th.

Bowie was a genius. Not just musically, but in pretty much he everything he bothered to entertain himself with. His observations of where the internet was headed are mind-blowing spot-on.

His voice is missed.

Today is the 42nd anniversary of his album Low. Time to put on the headphones.
