Bruce Sterling at LIFT Asia

July 4, 2008 - 08:53 — Nicolas Nova

Science-fiction writer and tech journalist Bruce Sterling joins the LIFT Asia speaker roster. He will participate in the session about the Future of Money, a topic he dealt with few years ago in this Forbes article:
"Money has to be mobile, so as to move from hand to hand with ease. Money needs to be flexible: incarnating itself as coins, paper, bonds, stocks or zipping electronic impulses. Money needs psychological acceptance: The population must unblinkingly accept the fact that a plastic card or flimsy paper is of great value."

Opening keynote by Bruce Sterling

November 9, 2007 - 17:54 — Nicolas Nova

Tech journalist and science-fiction writer Bruce Sterling will give the opening speech of the LIFT08 edition. We asked Bruce to give us a "state of the [technological] world address", a 30' overview of what happened in the previous year that struck you as pertinent, interesting and curious to be conveyed to the LIFT audience.
