90.5 WESA - Nanograms

Technology is changing fast, and reshaping the human experience along with it – transforming the economy, the environment and the way society is organized. But explosive technological growth isn’t just changing our world. It’s changing us. How we think of ourselves. How we relate to one other. How we imagine our future. Nanograms is a limited-series dispatch from the front lines of technoculture, where weird and surprising things are happening at the intersection of human and machine, of science and the arts, of technology and… everything else. It’s a dumpster-dive into big ideas and complex problems, a serialized feast served in bite-size chunks for those of us who are already living with one foot in the future, but still figuring out what that means.

I/O

To be alive in the developed world in 2015 is to be situated within a stream of data that flow both in and out of one's body. Some people are trying to upgrade their input/output ports to let those data flow more freely. By building digital interfaces into their nervous systems, grinders are blurring the boundary between human and machine -- and raising some difficult questions about the nature of consciousness.NotesGrindhouse WetwareSally Bartel, Spotted Dolphins Echolocating and EatingLepht Anonym, "Cybernetics for the Masses"Nanograms theme + original music by Josh Mobley (@joshmobleymusic).

Vital $igns

Heartstrings

You’ve heard of the “Internet of Things,” right? Smart refrigerators that let you know when it’s time to pick up milk. Dryers that text you when your laundry’s done. WiFi-enabled thermostats and light fixtures you control from your phone… that kind of thing. What about internal organs?NotesFighting for the Right to Open his Heart Data: Hugo Campos at TEDxCambridge 2011Washington Post 10.21.13: Yes, Terrorists Could Have Hacked Dick Cheney's HeartNanograms theme + original music by Josh Mobley (@joshmobleymusic).

Our Cell Phones, Ourselves

It’s not a new observation: mobile devices have become indispensable tools for modern life. And the relationship is getting to be more than just utilitarian. Increasingly, we identify with these devices – and the connections they effect – in deeply personal ways. It’s as though the technology has become a part of our selves. subscribe in itunes NotesGallup: Most U.S. Smartphone Owners Check Phone At Least HourlyBenjamin Wittes and Jane Chong, "Our Cyborg Future: Law and Policy Implications"Nanograms theme + original music by Josh Mobley (@joshmobleymusic).
