Sounds like a good fit for media lab since it's all fluff.
- TeMPOraL 7y ago>> nanotech/grey goo, space colonization, cryonics, super AI Let's not throw the baby out with the bathwater. All of the things on this list are desirable and somebody has to do research for us to ever achieve them. The problem still is people trying to misrepresent the state of the art, whether in academia or in the industry.
- kkarakk 7y agomedia lab has a motto "demo or die", i don't think that's conducive to research in any way
