Thanks for the link! Just read his interview about AIDS (argh*!#+ ...should be working instead...). He has a fascinating perspective on the issue.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15415055.post-50747269063817879302008-01-08T20:54:00.000+09:002008-01-08T20:54:00.000+09:00Interesting that you should say that as the progra...Interesting that you should say that as the program gave me the same 'I wonder' moment. I've been thinking about it over the last few days especially in regards to music... who is this generation's Mozart, Beethoven or even Lennon/Mcartney?<BR/><BR/>The 'worked-in-a-biotech-firm' part of me thinks that <A HREF="http://www.karymullis.com/" REL="nofollow">Kary Mullis</A> and similar alternative thinkers will be those who will (should?) be remembered and honoured.<BR/><BR/>Flemings 'discovery' of penicillin and associated antibiotics could turn out to be the most significant event of the last 200 years though... that is if the 'Superbug' concept is to be believed.zebra factoryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15302027485746516064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15415055.post-50520477374197809892008-01-08T20:17:00.000+09:002008-01-08T20:17:00.000+09:00When I look at the history of a technology-driven ...When I look at the history of a technology-driven media as a developing form of the expression and interpretation of human culture i always think about the question who the Talbots and Daguerres of our times might be?<BR/><BR/>We now look back more than a hundred years to learn and reflect about the early beginnings of a media, that has revolutionised our culture. To what development, time and persons will the people look back in another hundred or twohundred years? <BR/><BR/>There are some who say that in many hundred years almost everything of our life will be classified as secondary events except for the moonlanding and the iss-space station. But maybe that's just the hopeful thinking of an sf fan.<BR/>I personally think, that the unknown Talbots, Daguerres, Newtons and Franklins of today work in some quiet little institute dealing with the first seeds of artifical intelligence and quantum computers. But any guess is as good as mine.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
