More madness to wrap your mind around....experiments with nanotech involving nothing more than media (cd and dvd) coated with fungus and foods/colas.
Should we be paying more and more attention to the "glitch" phenomenon? Methinks so.

From the above site:

"Therefore, molecular computing is a practical use of nanotechnology for generating glitch and error. However, it differs from traditional cut-and-paste technique or granular synthesis by exploiting chaos, self-organisation and emergence at the resolution limit of the digital bits that make-up sound!""

There is something here and it relates directly to Frank (I will explain Frank in another post so don't worry if you are confused)
Self-organisation and emergence are at the basis of the mystery of what we like to call LIFE.
We (humans) think we *know* LIFE when we *see* LIFE.

Is that so?

Check the clips of the nanotech dance and start to ask the questions that are haunting you from just beyond your peripheral beliefs....

The rest of clips are worth checking out too.

Its waiting for you.

Top news that you'll never hear about....

Yeah, I know...usually I am wary about this kind of stuff too but after I snuck over to read a few of the articles I thought maybe others should at least take a glance too.

As for everything I have been saying about the American government, Microsoft and Africa...take a look at this link

Be VERY afraid.

That ole internet alive jive I be talking is waxing and taxing its way to the surface...

Exhibit A:

http://www.cs.caltech.edu/~kiniry/projects/Modeling98/submissions/minar.html

The paper begins quite lovely with this:

"The Internet is a vastly distributed complex system. It exhibits emergent phenomena at all scales, from the lowest level of bits moving around wires to the highest level of distributed application. Because of its complexity the network is quite literally out of control: no human being or organization can dictate or even really understand the most important and interesting aspects of the Internet's operation."

I suggest everyone read the essay in its entirety if you are ever going to figure out ANYTHING that I plan to say on this blog...

hrrmph! hrrmph!

Gadzuuks!!!
