As well as proposals for sound effects for electric cars, the day is kicked off with a 10:30 reading from Neri Oxman, the creator of ‘materialecology’, who combines design and nature.
At 14:00, Jacque Fresco is hosting a lecture on The Venus Project, a proposal to build a conscientious, resource-based society. Fresco is the man behind cult internet-film ‘Zeitgeist’.
