| Description |
Last night at <a href="http://www.amdglobalvision.com/program.php">AMD GlobalVision</a>, a room of tech execs confronted 100,000 LEGOs. The challenge: build “what the world needs now.” Most of the projects had some solar or green or goodness theme. This was the most whimsical entry for what the world needs now: a “DARPA orgasmatron”. This unfortunate ex-IDEO volunteer was transformed into a LEGO-borg that made manifest a number of topics brought up earlier in the conference (see Notes). VS Ramachandran spoke of a magnetic pulse helmet that can enhance creativity temporarily, mimicking the enhanced creativity of people with frontal temporal dementia (I am currently reading his book on phantom limb pain). A DARPA doctor and med tech speaker described some freaky body modifications, posing the rhetorical question “What would a monkey do if it had a third hand?” Here is the answer. We also learned from Søren Lund that the world’s largest manufacturer of tires is LEGO at 300 million per year. |
