Updates and News

Updates, updates...

We are very busy here, working on a lot of content to bring you in the coming weeks.

Very soon, we will publish our interview with the hottest name in futurism today, Miss Metaverse.  Be on the lookout for that.  Also on tap are interviews with Maria Konovalenko, Christopher Jannette and Luis Arana.

Miss Metaverse


There will be more audiovisual content, including short films, more podcasts for you to listen to, movie reviews, music videos, etc.

We will also have articles on Augmented Reality, Hatsune Miku and Ingress - three related, but separate things of interest to our community.

If you have some art or feel you have something to say about Future/Culture, contact us on Twitter @TJL2080 to find out how to get your work seen here.






Oh, and... Who is Luna?

Robot Overlordz - Episode #166 - AgitaTED!!

 

SPECIAL GUEST: Rachel Haywire (INSTED). Technology. Entertainment. Design. TED. The TED conference and the foundation that runs it have become a viral sensation on the Internet. Their videos have been viewed millions of times by people all over the world. But has this success resulted in a dilution of the very things that TED seeks to promote? We're joined this episode by Rachel Haywire, the founder of INSTED, an anticonference that seeks to create a new space for disruption, dissent and innovation. The first INSTED is set for 5/2/2015 in Los Angeles and there are some bigger possibilities ahead as well. Recorded 4/27/2015.  It can be downloaded at https://robotoverlordz.fm/show/224-ep00166-notes
