Energy Accounting is a method of keeping track of energy and the resource base. Energy certificates are a right of citizenship in a Technate. Thus sustainability becomes a real prospect. In a money system (Price System) sustainability is not possible, as all choice is arbitrated by profit or loss of debt tokens.

Horizon: Where's My Robot?
|
Posted December 21st 2008 11:14PM

Danny Wallace really wants a robot. He wants it to walk like him and talk like him. It's what scientists have been promising us for generations but it's a promise so far unfulfilled. Danny circumnavigates the globe searching for robot nirvana and trying to uncover how far away his dream is. He discovers that the robotics world is as weird as it is insanely complicated. During his quest he meets a Japanese man who makes copies of himself and his daughter, an Italian who claims he's found the key to human intelligence in a video game and a Singaporean whose less than promising looking homage to Dusty Bin, might just turn out to be the robot of Danny's dreams. |

I was recently fortunate enough to attend a lecture by Antonia Juhasz author of "The Tyranny of Oil" which details the atrocities committed by the petroleum industry and its historic connection to basically every major war in modern history. I recommend reading the book, but the video "Blood and Oil" gives an overview of the same topic covered by "The Tyranny of Oil". All of this is especially relevant as Chevron is currently in the middle of a land-mark trail for murdering Nigerian protesters in 1998. |

This TED Talk was done in 2003. It's amazing to see just how much of what was described and predicted has been fulfilled already. The technologies on display in this presentation have advanced considerably since this talk and the future of robotics is very much unfolding as predicted. |

In this amazing presentation Norman Foster gives a broad overview of his involvement in green design over the last few decades.

Trans- humanism & existentialism
|
Posted August 31st 2008 9:06AM

What is a human..?. and how many add ons to a human, turn it into something else.?. Is it a fantasy of people to think that combination's of people and robots will be significantly different in thought and temperament... from now?
A cyborg will have thoughts feelings and emotions and existential dilemmas and also opinions. Opinions are never fact... so how is it that cyborgs and trans humanism are seen as some kind of perfecting mechanism of humans by many and the road to immortality by some? Everything dies... or gets the plug pulled from it at some point. So... will the human/cyborg condition change? No. Both will look for meaning, purpose, and beauty. |
