			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>See following clip from Gregg Braden on the effects of frequency on a drop of water. He poses the question, &#8220;What will happen to us on a molecular level in the year of 2012?&#8221;. </p>
<p>Fascinating to see the effect frequency has on matter. Knowing that frequency is changing in our part of the galaxy, and has been over time, and taking into account that fact that us as humans are about 60% water, it makes one wonder on the evolution of us as a species and the positive effects this may have for the future.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>An 83-year-old woman who was suffering from a lower jaw infection has become the first person to receive a jaw implant manufactured with a 3D printer. </p>
<p><a href="http://www.futureearth.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/3DPrintedJaw.jpg"><img src="http://www.futureearth.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/3DPrintedJaw.jpg" alt="3D Printed Jaw" title="3DPrintedJaw" width="450" height="315" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1083" /></a></p>
<p>This is a significant breakthrough as cases such as hers are normally treated with reconstructive surgery. <br />Due to her age and health, doctors considered this approach too risky and so, turned to a company called LayerWise, that specializes in 3D printing of metallic structures.</p>
<p>So how does this work??  Well, titanium powder is melted with a high-precision laser into layers which is guided by a computer model of the jaw. Then the computer generated model is digitally divided into 2D layers and printed &#8211; 33 layers per millimeter! After the implant was made it was treated with a bioceramic coating by Cam Bioceramics BV. With articulated joints and cavities, grooves that foster muscle attachment, nerve and vein regrowth, it is amazing to think how intricate and realistic the &#8216;part&#8217; can be made. This &#8216;printed jaw&#8217; was also made within a matter of a few hours.</p>
<p>
The printed implant fit so well into the patient, that surgeons were able to attach it in just four hours, meaning a shorter surgery and a shorter recovery time. The patient was able to go home with her new jaw after only four days. </p>
<p>Wonderful applications this technology has for the future of healthcare &#8211; putting better quality of life in the reach of many more.</p>

Nano quadrotors are robotic flying &#8216;copters&#8217; first developed at UPenn’s GRASP Lab by Daniel Mellinger  have become quite a sensation on YouTube of late. They have been developed by their company KMel Robotics, in a range of sizes, with possible applications for manned versions (which are in development by the like of Thomas Senkel of e-volo from Germany).</p>

<p>Miniature versions of the stunt bots,as seen in the footage above, can fly in complex 3D formations and their coordinated acrobatics can have many positive applications in the real world. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So&#8230;what comes after the singularity? Jason Silva poses the question and discusses &#8216;The Tanscension Hypothesis&#8217; by John Smart which offers an suggestion of what may come after the technological singularity and anser the question of Fermi&#8217;s Paradox, or &#8216;if there are all these galaxies and &#8216;space dudes&#8217; progressing and evolving, why do we not see evidence of these?&#8217;<br />
<br />
He goes on to discuss the concept some 600 odd years into the future after singularity, when our technological adolescent and expansionist explorations turn from outer space to inner space. Our journey and understanding may well undergo compression of Space, Time, Energy and Matter (S.T.E.M compression) &#8211; until non biological minds live inside virtual worlds at the nano and femto scale Even then, further compression and complexity until we create black hole-like conditions and disappear from the visible universe (as we have come to understand it) </p>
<p>A fascinating and can be seen in the evidence  of computing in our lifespans. Wher will that be in 30 years, how small will that be and how many trillion times faster &#8211; It is almost inconceivable &#8211; yet exciting!  </p>
<p>Evolution people!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Dubbed The Teatro del Agua, or Water theatre, this invention by Charlie Paton and the development seems to be taken on by the Grimshaw Architect firm. Essentially this development will make fresh water from the oceans salt water. A whole other application for extracting water utilising evaporation, a similar method as mentioned in the <a href="http://www.futureearth.com.au/science/airdrop-irrigation/" title="AirDrop Irrigation">Airdrop Irrigation</a> low tech invention by Edward Linacre post.<br />
<br />
<iframe id="dit-video-embed" width="512" height="288" src="http://static.discoverymedia.com/videos/components/hsw/6827-title/snag-it-player.html?auto=no" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" allowtransparency="true"></iframe></p>
<p>So how does this Water theatre work?  The idea is to couple a series of evaporators and condensers such that the airborne moisture from the evaporators is then collected from the condensers, which are cooled by deep seawater. This produces large quantities of distilled water from seawater and is almost entirely driven by renewable energy. The structure is orientated perpendicular to the prevailing northeasterly wind to obtain a supply of ambient air. The flow rate is controlled by louvres on the leeward side, which also incorporates solar panels to provide heat for the evaporators.<br />
<br />
It seem that with little energy, &#8216;enough water for a city&#8217; can be produced, according to Paton. This coupled with minimal excess salt from the process results in production of fresh clean drinking water and a useful cultural space for the community. </p>
<p>A positive solution for a positive future I think.</p>

<p>Well!&#8230;.Khan Academy is a brilliant not for profit initiative founded by Salman Khan, bringing world class education to the world via the web, for <strong>FREE!</strong> Presenting these topics are a growing number of &#8216;coaches&#8217; volunteering their time, in addition to translators getting busy translating lessons into a range of languages to help spread the knowledge. </p>
<p>The nature of how these lessons are delivered, is genuinely enthusiastic and with the use of colourful working sketches and impactful imagery, that great under-utilised technique of connecting both right and left sides of the brain in the &#8216;lesson&#8217; has been well thought through.</p>
<p>The following vdeo tells you more about the nature of how it all works. Not only is it brilliant to educate people, for free&#8230;.but there is an ability to track the lessons for the students and to achieve goals and rewards, further encouraging them to come back for more. </p>
<p><iframe width="550" height="309" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/DLt6mMQH1OY?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<p>Yes, us human social folk, do indeed like belonging, rewards, badges and shiny things! Why not I say!! Have a look, learn something new, spread the word, donate and support this fantastic push to share knowledge and make the planet a better place for all, through education! Check them out at <a href="http://www.khanacademy.org" title="Khan Academy">http://www.khanacademy.org</a></p>
<p>Here is an example of one of the more &#8216;fun&#8217; (less chewie) videos titled &#8220;Doodling in Math: Spirals, Fibonacci, and Being a Plant&#8221; Great stuff!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Following is a computer or &#8216;telepathy machine&#8217; reconstructing speech from brainwaves. Although the reconstruction of the original speech is a little &#8216;rusty&#8217;, with refinement, I&#8217;m sure ti will not eb long until this sort of technology is common place.</p>
<p>Applications for this sort of technology are far reaching in the field of medicine, with the like of patients with inability to comminicate in the usual manner, being able to communicate via thought. Further applications would include the ability to communicate fo rthe like of individuals with motor neurons disease for one, or for those with speech impediments.</p>
<p>This technology may well advance to include the ability to create images associated with relevant brainwaves. Perhaps it won&#8217;t be too long before we will be able to write a book, or create a movie, just by thinking about it!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Following is a concept for the future of commercial passenger flight from Airbus. One item I noticed, and recently thought about was having the capacity to hold up your &#8216;phone&#8217; or potentially even on the plane glass and be able to have an overlay of the geographic feature you are flying over. I found myself thinking &#8216;what town is that&#8217;, so to have the ability to find out and learn all about it, would sure kill some of those travelling hours. I also am quite keen on the concept of being able to practice my golf swing at 30 000 ft above ground level!</p>
<p>Charles Champion, Airbus Executive Vice President Engineering, says: </p>
<p>&#8220;Our research shows that passengers of 2050 will expect a seamless travel experience while also caring for the environment. The Airbus Concept Cabin is designed with that in mind, and shows that the journey can be as much a voyage of discovery as the destination. Whichever flight experience is chosen, the passenger of 2050 will step out of the Airbus Concept Cabin feeling revitalised and enriched.&#8221;</p>
<p>One would think that this sort of advancement will be here long before 2050. Actually&#8230;. my vote is for teleportation&#8230; scrap the plane!</p>
