Three reflections on humanity, our technology, and the stories we tell await you on June 10 at the Complex. Scientists Steve Smith and Stephen Guerin, sci-fi novelist Steve Gould and renowned game designer Chris Crawford ponder what does the future hold for humans and the technologies we depend on? While they may not follow David Levy’s predictions of human and robot dalliances, they will consider how tools have moved beyond passive participants in human culture to the active role played by today’s computers and, yes, tomorrow’s robots. Along the way, they’ll consider the human penchant for story telling and what answers our stories may hold for this question. A $5.00 donation is suggested for this event.
