This page contains a copy of all of the links that were in the WTA's SkyBox, in Second Life.

Valen Baxter's links:

  • Transhumanist Interview - an interesting interview with a transhumanist thinker
  • Micro-Wireless - Wireless communication between PDAs, phones, implants, maybe even people eventually.
  • Structural metamaterials - Some amazing research into super-strong substances, possibly ideal for structures like building materials, or replacement bones.
  • Muscular Enhancement - potential for super-human strength
  • Data Storage - another media-storage advancement, this one geared towards optical/visual information.
  • Micro-scale batteries - definitely a step toward extending the battery life of implants/other technology.
  • Stackable computer chips - increased computing power. Need I say more?
  • Electricity producing bacteria - Serious potential as a power source for implants
  • Solar powered nano-motors - big news in the Small Things category, this opens new doors for micro-implants, and components thereof.
  • British Chimera research. - Human/animal hybrids. Big step forward in genetic engineering
  • Neural Interface - This is fairly self explainitory.
  • Data Storage - massive digital memory storage. Fitting more into less space is always a good thing, especially when considering internal implants.
  • Human Memory research - an impressive development for the mind-machine interface crowd
  • advanced meta-materials - Some more amazing research into exotic materials eact as one would expect, this time in the light-bending/invisibility vein
  • sensory input - The possibility of expanding one's sensory capabilities has always been tantalizing. Fitting that our research should begin by duplicating senses found in nature that we humans do not share.
  • early shielding system? - A major breakthrough in space exploration.
