FastForward Radio Live at Convergence 08!

By | November 16, 2008

This weekend we presented not one, but two editions of FastForward Radio, both coming to you live from the Convergence ’08 Unconference in Mountain View, California. Phil traveled to the event to report on developments and talk with the participants, while Stephen held down the fort in the FFR International Command Center in Shreveport, LA.

For those of you who didn’t make the Unconference, this is a chance to hear some of the participants and get a flavor of the event. We caught up with old friends and made some new ones as we discussed technologies and ideas that are shaping our world. Some of the things talked about at the conference included:

  • Neurotechnology
  • Artificial general intelligence
  • Synthetic biology
  • Human enhancement
  • Space tourism
  • Social software
  • Prediction markets
  • Nanotechnology
  • Smart drugs
  • Bioethics
  • Cleantech
  • NBIC startup tips
  • Reputation systems
  • Life extension / anti-aging
  • Accelerating change
  • Biotechnology
  • Open source everything
  • Surveillance / privacy

Saturday’s show started at 5:30 pm (Pacific). Sunday’s show was at 12:00 pm (Pacific).
