GENTECH by Dr. Rick Chromey

 

We are uniquely shaped by innovations that influenced us during our "coming of age" years between 10 and 25.

It is the technological interactions in our adolescence and college
years that guide our generational frames more than anything else, not the day we were born.We are generations of technology. We are GenTech.

Book Description:



Every twenty years a new generation rises, but who and what defines
these generations? And could current generational tags mislead and miss
the point? In this insightful analysis of technology history since 1900,
Dr. Rick Chromey offers a fresh perspective for understanding what
makes a generation tick and differ from others. Within GenTech,
readers learn how every generation uniquely interacts with particular
technologies that define historical temperament and personality and why
current generational labels are more fluid than fixed, and more loopy
than linear. Consequently, three major generational constellations
emerge, each containing four, twenty-year generations that overlap,
merge, and blend:

• The Audio Generations (1900-1950):
  Transportation-Telephone Generation (1900-1920), Motion Picture
  Generation (1910-1930), Radio Generation (1920-1940), Vinyl Record
  Generation (1930-1950)
• The Visual Generations (1940-1990): Television
  Generation (1940-1960), Space Generation (1950-1970), Gamer Generation
  (1960-1980) and Cable Television Generation (1970-1990)
• The Digital Generations (1980-2000): Personal
  Computer-Cell Phone Generation (1980-2000), Net Generation (1990-2010),
  iTech Generation (2000-2020), and Robotics Generation (2010-2030). Dive
  in and revel in this exciting, compelling, and novel perspective to
  understanding recent American generations with GenTech.
