Matter: "Matter
will become software" |

"There
are only about 100 kinds of atoms in all the Universe, and whether these atoms
form trees or tires, ashes or animals, water or the air we breath, depends on
how they are put together."

Hewat, computer scientist

over Intro Notes
The
dawn of Molecular Nanotechnology is the most significant event since the rise of
sapient life on our planet!
The
controlled manipulation of individual atoms and molecules (molecular-scale
engineering) will completely change
the world, and everything in it... including the human evolutionary
path. Soon after Nanotechnology is adequately developed, we will face a
technological Singularity.
We
now have within our grasp the ability to arbitrarily alter matter to any form we
wish... and the final implications are literally beyond 'human'
comprehension.
Once
you understand the concept, you will be awed, shocked, and maybe more than a
little concerned! It is by far the most powerful technology our species
has obtained, completely eclipsing any previous technology.
"Nanotech" is our future, and it has already begun!

What
a rush!
(2004.04.27)
Nano will have your mind pulling 10 Gs... careful,
or you'll black out!
An awesome,
highly thought provoking 1st novel by John
Robert Marlow. Just finished reading
it... and this absolutely HAS to be a movie!
It vaporizes (disassembles?) Crichton's 'Prey'...
technically, emotionally, and
intellectually. No contest!
To finally
see in story form, some of the overwhelmingly
profound concepts that have filled my mind for
years... moved me to tears. For years I have
struggled to share exactly these concepts with
people, but failed to capture their
attention. NANO brilliantly
illuminates these concepts, and the movie will
create epiphanies for millions. The
NANO movie may be the vehicle to finally inject
the Nanotechnology meme into the mass
consciousness!
Most of the
story surrounds the use of self-replicating
nanobots, and a sentient AI that exists on the
global net. The illustration of the AI's
thought process and 'dawn of sentience' was
great... I loved it! I want that
upgrade... 8^)
Bottom
line... this story is an excellent 1st step to
grasping the concepts contingent on Nanotech:
arbitrary manipulation of matter, enhanced
intelligence, immortality, sentient AI, and even
the Singularity! What a rush!
