Brains, Brains, Brains and more Brains The smartest blogging is going on at Zack Lynch's Corante: Brain Waves, by the brainiacs of guestblogging.  Pat Kane brilliantly redefined play for us last week.  Steven Johnson is up next, asking "What happens to our layperson brains now that we're able to talk about our mental events in a much more direct, non-metaphoric language?" July 28-Aug 1: The Future of Work is Play Pat Kane, author of the forthcoming book, The Play Ethic: Living Creatively in the New Century (MacMillan 2004). "Play will be to the 21st century what work was to the last 300 years of industrial society - our dominant way of knowing, doing and creating value."   See Brain Waves Post:  Harry Potter and the Rise of Kidults Aug 4-8: Personal Experiences with Neurotechnology Steven Johnson, author of Emergence and Interface Culture describes his experiences with brain imaging, neurofeedback and other mind oriented topics. Steven also writes the Emerging Technology column for Discover magazine each month.  See Brain Waves Post: Express Yourself Aug 11-15: Neuroeconomics, Trust and Neurosociology Paul Zak is the Director of the Center for Neuroeconomics Studies at Claremont Graduate University.  He is a leading researcher on the neurobiology of trust and is in the process of raising money for a new Center for Brain Studies in the Inland Empire.  If you are interested in becoming a donor please contact Paul or myself.  See Brain Waves Post: Economics From the Neurons Up 11:47:17 PM    comment [] Almost Typepad Time Counting down the minutes until I can get my hands on my Typepad.  Planning a little blog transition.  11:33:21 PM    comment []
