The evolution from hardware to software has advanced to the successful implementation of WETWARE! Wetware (the direct link between the human mind and a computer) has arrived. I wrote a screenplay about it ten years ago and have been waiting for this announcement! It was just a matter of time! Nature.Com has the article on a Paralyzed Man Who Sends Email by Thought from an implanted chip. Pretty amazing!
My screenplay was a bit more sinister. It was about the military implanting soldiers with a chip that could “broadcast” images of a soldier’s loved ones into what he/she was seeing. It made them the perfect killing machines because they were protecting those they loved. Perhaps, one day, that will be true, too.
Apologies
My sincere apologies for having been so sloppy about blogging. Alec turned 17 on the 20th and my parents arrived from Wisconsin on the 21st. They were staying with me while they looked for a place to live, so things have been a bit crazy! We’re at the end of the 10th week of semester, too. The documentary is progressing and the faculty art show is coming. So, things started to fall to the wayside. I’m back on track again and should be able to keep up, now.
