| Earthship Design Principles |
 |
Earthship Biotecture creates buildings that... *
Heat and cool themselves naturally via
solar/thermal dynamics * Collect their own power
from the sun and wind * Harvest their own water
from rain and snow melt * Contain and treat their
own sewage on site * Produce food in significant
quantities * Utilize materials that are byproducts
of modern society like cans, bottles and tires

| Future by Design Trailer, William Gazecki Director |
 |
WORLD PREMIERE JUNE 10 ATLANTA FILM FESTIVAL
Future by Design shares the life and far-reaching
vision of Jacque Fresco, considered by many to be
a modern day Da Vinci. Peer to Einstein and
Buckminster Fuller, Jacque is a self-taught
futurist who describes himself most often as a
"generalist" or multi-disciplinarian -- a student
of many inter-related fields. He is a prolific
inventor, having spent his entire life (he is now
90 years old) conceiving of and devising
inventions on various scales which entail the use
of innovative technology. As a futurist, Jacque is
not only a conceptualist and a theoretician, but
he is also an engineer and a designer.

| Janine Benyus: 12 sustainable design ideas from nature |
 |
http://www.ted.com With 3.8 billion years of
research and development on its side, nature has
already solved problems that human designers and
engineers still struggle with. In this inspiring
talk, Janine Benyus provides fascinating examples
of biomimicry -- the way humans mimic nature in
the products we build and the systems we
implement. And because the champion adapters in
the natural world are, by definition, those that
can survive without destroying the environment
that sustains them, biomimicry can contribute to
the long-term health of our planet.

| Digital Design: Beyond Trial and Error |
 |
Google Tech Talks
August 19, 2008
ABSTRACT
With few exceptions, the design of digital systems
-- both hardware and software -- is based on trial
and error, and it is this aspect of digital design
that we must move beyond in order to achieve a
fundamental advance in the reliability and
security of the systems we create. In this talk,
we take a critical look at the problem from the
perspective of other engineering disciplines in
which: (a) design is not trial and error but
instead is based on rigorous mathematical
principles and (b) concurrency is expressed in a
natural and transparent way. From this critical
analysis, we identify four requirements for a
methodology to take us beyond trial and error. We
then give an overview of a methodology that meets
those requirements.
Speaker: Fred Furtek
Dr. Furtek has broad experience in both hardware
and software development with special expertise in
reconfigurable multi-core processors, massively
parallel algorithms and the mathematics of
concurrency. He was among the first to work in the
area of formal verification (The MITRE Corporation
and The Charles Stark Draper Laboratory). He was
also one of a handful of individuals to recognize
the potential of reconfigurable hardware, and
subsequently founded a
field-programmable-gate-array company (Concurrent
Logic) whose technology has been licensed to
several major companies (Apple Computer, National
Semiconductor and IBM) and which was ultimately
purchased by another semiconductor company (Atmel
Corporation). Later, he led pioneering efforts to
establish formal modeling and verification as an
integral part of the digital design process
(Interval Research and Applied Combinatorics). He
was also involved in pioneering efforts to develop
new computing platforms based on reconfigurable,
multi-core architectures unrivaled in
price/performance and energy efficiency
(QuickSilver Technology and Rapport, Inc.). Most
recently, he developed an innovative tool -- in
which hardware and software are indistinguishable
-- that maps sequential programs onto a multi-core
processor fabric (Rapport, Inc.). Dr. Furtek holds
a bachelor's degree in electrical engineering, as
well as a master's and doctorate in computer
science, all from the Massachusetts Institute of
Technology. He has 23 issued U.S. patents and 4
pending U.S. patents.

| Intelligent Design and Creationism/Evolution Controversy |
 |
'Intelligent Design' (ID) is a new form of
creationism that emerged after legal decisions in
the 1980s hampered the inclusion of 'creation
science' in the public school curriculum. In the
20 years since ID appeared, there has been no
evidence of it being used to solve problems in
biology. Although the scientific/scholarly part of
ID has been a failure, the 'cultural renewal' part
of ID has been a success, as supporters of ID seek
'restoration' of a theistic sensibility in
American culture to replace what they consider an
overemphasis on secularism.
