I'll be participating in Poptech in a couple of weeks — and there are plenty of reasons why you might want to, as well. Among them: Aubrey de Gray is going to talk about the possibility of people living to be 1000 years old. Another guy who creates biological art will talk about injecting tiny sculptures into itty-bitty lifeforms. Then, there's Graham Hawkes, who makes really, really, really deep-sea submersibles. Did I mention "space architect" Constance Adams? The event "explores the impact of technology on our lives, our planet and our future," and takes place October 16-19 in Camden, Maine. Link
