Roy Christopher (Highlights)

  • Computers are supposed to be something that decrease time consumption but it has distractions as well and it's up to you to avoid them.
  • "It's either program or be programmed" Roy said that we should not be victimized by technology but rather learn from it so that that way we will have already been prepared for what is next.
  • He prefers to not have a smartphone so he could just get home and find what's new on his computer.
  • With new stuff coming out, it's up to us if we want to keep ourselves up to date with it or not.
  • Advent Horizons are good because you have the opportunity to excel in whatever your generation has started.
  • Older generations have problems trusting the newer generations because of all the changes in the media and it'd be best if we trusted each other more. 
  • Roy does not believe in multitasking. He says that the quality of his project is much better when he is focused on one project rather than on multiple ones. 
  • In 10 years we will not be digital natives but we will be digital immigrants and it's really up to our generation to invent the next new thing.
  • We have to be careful with what is put on mobile technology because that will be more important than it be possible to doing it.

  1. Well-organized ideas. How can you inspire older generations to trust and respect you more? Does the work you're doing now help?
