Quantum to Cosmos Festival


The Quantum to Cosmos Festival starts today in Waterloo, Ontario, Canada. It's ten days of presentations, panel discussions, movies, demos, and a whole lot more sponsored by the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics.

You can catch most of the events live online at the festival website at http://q2cfestival.com/. For instance, tonight at 7 Eastern, 10 physicists talk about the future of their field.

Tune in to XPRIZE founder and CEO Peter Diamandis on Sunday at 1:00 PM. His topic: "The Best Way to Predict the Future is to Invent it Yourself!"

I'll be there starting on Thursday, October 22 at 8:00 PM on a panel with Hod Lipson, Eliezer Yudkowsky, and Cory Doctorow on the Robotics Revolution and the Future of Evolution, which will also be broadcast as part of The Agenda with Paikin throughout the Toronto area.
