Geoethical Nanotechnology

CRN is pleased to post this announcement:

WEBCAST ANNOUNCED FOR FIRST WORKSHOP ON GEOETHICAL NANOTECHNOLOGY

The Terasem Movement, Inc., a non-profit foundation focused on geoethical nanotechnology, announced today that an interactive webcast featuring Ray Kurzweil, Max More, Frank Tipler, Doug Mulhall, Mike Treder and other luminaries at its Geoethical Nanotechnology meeting will be openly accessible at www.terasemfoundation.org/webcast from 8AM-6PM EST on Wednesday, July 20th.
Geoethical nanotechnology is the development and implementation under a global regulatory framework of machines capable of assembling molecules into a wide variety of objects, in a broad range of sizes, and in potentially vast quantities. An example of geoethical nanotechnology would be billions of tiny devices that reclaim hurricane or tsunami-ravaged landscapes.

Viewers of the interactive webcast are invited to email or IM (instant-message) questions directed to the presenters throughout the meeting. Each hour, some of these will be selected for the featured speakers to answer. Emailed questions should be addressed to [email protected]. AOL IM questions should be addressed to "terasem."

Other workshop presenters available for emailed or IM questions on July 20th include Nobel Laureate Barry Blumberg (speaking on the definitional boundary of life), WTA Executive Director James Hughes, Extropy Institute President Natasha Vita-More, Wrye Sententia of CCLE, Prof. Len Doyal, Walt Anderson and Martine Rothblatt. The webcast will feature simultaneous transmission of audio, video and PowerPoint presentations.
