Interview with Dr. Bruce Damer on The Contact Conference, Outer Space explorations, and Origin of Life research

Listen Now to Dr. Bruce Damer

This week  Contact held their yearly gathering in Silicon Valley and Dr. Damer was there to both listen and participate in the presentations and discussions.  Contact is an annual interdisciplinary conference that brings together renowned social and space scientists, science fiction writers and artists to exchange ideas, stimulate new perspectives and encourage serious, creative speculation about humanity’s future. 

Always fun and engaging, we think you’ll enjoy Bruce’s report!

News - Tech pioneer Pat McGovern passes, Creating Nanobionic Superplants, Synthetic Biology by Autodesk

Listen Now to Dr. Future News 3.25.14

It was with great sadness that we heard that publishing giant Patrick J. McGovern had passed, a true visionary in the high tech world who had succeeded in spreading the enlightenment of information technology to the entire planet via his hundreds of publications sourced from his people in IDG offices in dozens of countries.  He basically ran the largest private intelligence network on the planet. An amazing man and a mentor to me for many years, you can see a video clip I shot with him and fellow philanthropist/publisher Henry Dakin in March of 1990, in the days of the collapse of the Soviet Union. It wasn’t long after this video that I was winging my way to Russia, on a special mission that both of these men helped to spawn..but that’s another story.

Meanwhile, the nanobiotech revolution continues to unfold with advances like “nanobionic superplants,” embued with special powers like 30% greater photosynthetic capabilities.  We also have new tools for creating living inventions, thanks to a new skunk works biolab in San Francisco, sponsored by the giant software company, Autodesk..  Enjoy the show!

We’ve been doing some serious solar upgrades at Future Peak of late and thought we’d share the good news on how it just might be time for you all to go solar, if you haven’t already.  We bring Shane Saxon into the studio for this show, who is  working with us on our Do-It-Yourself install.   Lots of info on this after our Future News..

Our classic Zomeworks solar tracker at Future Peak, equipped with some new 260 Watt SolarWorld panels we obtained inexpensively ML Solar. This week we feature our top home upgrade geek, Shane Saxon, inventor of Antz,  and if you are looking for local solar installers, we recommend Carl Reuter.
