It seems that Productive Nanosystems, the computer-animated video about nanofactory technology made by John Burch and Eric Drexler, has moved from the leading edge of futurist thinking -- originally posted at the Nanorex site -- into the mainstream -- posted at Google Videos -- and now has gone all the way into pop culture, with a posting on YouTube!
Yes, I know, that intro that's been tacked on (by someone called Duane Kuss) is pretty cheesy, but still, it's good to see these ideas reaching a wider audience.

Eric Drexler, when he unveiled the video back in 2004, declared: "You'll see it begin to change the culture." More here

I have just seen a rather well-done documentary about MNT called "Nanotopia", it is an episode of the BBC series Horizon. Eleven years-old, but still relevant. Contains interviews with Carl Feynman, Eric Drexler, and Ralph Merkle. You can find it on Youtube and Google Video.
