LIFT08
Geneva
One word on LIFT's program snapped us out of the winter doldrums: "cyborg." Among the speakers at this ideafest, centered on emerging technologies' effects, is British cyborg-researcher Kevin Warwick, who had a microchip implanted in his body so he could study his nervous system via PC linkup. (His goal is to aid the disabled.) Also on the agenda: Anthropologists for Nokia and Intel discuss how their studies of tech users affect product design. --JC

Hey Lifters,
If anyone "happens" to be in Monterey, CA on march 1-2, this is the unconference to attend. the Buzz is spreading and it will be most likely a fresh innovation in the P2P ( person to person ) totally un-organized ( or as they claim - self organizing.. ) discussion get together.
BIL is...
an open, self-organizing, emergent, and anarchic science and technology conference.
Nobody is in charge.
If you want to come, just show up.
If you have an idea to spread, start talking.
If someone is saying something interesting, stop and listen.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
If anyone is going - Blip me - I will be there.
Steve
