Listen Now to Future News 2.23.2016

Sadly one of the great minds of personal computing, Wesley Clark, passed this week.  We have Dr. Bruce Damer to share with us a little about the life and legacy of this great man. Before he passed he helped to restore one of his great inventions, the LINC computer, the first machine designed for a single operator.  This historical working minicomputer now resides at the Digibarn in Boulder Creek, CA. 

In the world of biotech, we have a new kind of lab rat for testing drugs and therapies, a quivering orb of human brain cells, minibrains grown from your own skin cells.  Quite amazing. Equally incredible is a new computer memory system that can store information for billions of years, insuring our legacy as a species far beyond even the age of the planet itself.  Why is this important? Civilization backup possibilities, avoidance of dark ages in our future evolution, immortality for our progress for futue societies. Fascinating stuff this week, enjoy!

Interview - What is Erotic? with Laura Bishop and the Choreographer known as Ellice

Listen Now to What is Erotic?

For our interview this week we have two of the creators of 2016’s What is Erotic? show, where our community discovers what is erotic this year.  Laura Bishop shares with us some highlights of past shows and with Ellice, lap dance choreographer this year, we delve a bit into the latest performances and the stories behind them.  Keep in mind that the eroticism performed in the show is not by actors, but by real people who wish to express themselves erotically, many for the first time.  Of particular note is that this year the show will be performed outside of Santa Cruz in our large neighboring community of San Jose, near Silicon Valley.  It is an experiment to see if our unique Santa Cruz culture can be exported succesfully.  Enjoy!
