rss feedDon’t think too much – but when you do, think well. Author Greg Bear talks future.
My thanks to Todd Bishop at TechFlash for posting this insightful TEDx chat last month by science-fiction author Greg Bear.
It involves the brain and thinking. And the questions and ideas that Bear raises do require some thought.
Does too much information – dare I ask it – need some type of editor or online guide or moderator? What should be off limits? When we talk about a free flow of information, what do we mean by that?
Speaking of information and monitoring, there are sensors that help police locate gunfire. In the future, the bicycle and camera might be redesigned. Journalists and cooks might come in new forms.
Also on TechFlash, John Cook posted an entry about the founder of TechCrunch moving to the Seattle area.
And the last time I typed the letters TED, it was about the Rhode Island School of Design president growing up in a tofu factory in Seattle’s International District.
