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
