Just saying that this year the well known Spoleto-Festival
http://www.spoletofestival.it/english/program.html
has an interesting section (Spoleto-Science branch) called
War of the Worlds, relationships between science, culture,
perception of the world, speculations on the dawn of this
21st century.
Many scientists (i.e. John Barrow) spoke about the famous
radio-broadcast by Orson Welles (the green men attack,
october, the 30th, 1938) and also about the famous
Bill Joy interview (on Wired).
Extropy was flying about, above those speakers.
Bill Joy (italian)
