Liao: Aren't we too fascinated with techology?
Satoru: Today many people are more intimate with their gadgets than they are with each other:
it's a sad state of affairs.
Tim: Perhaps we've forgotten that the best technology is the human brain.
Consciousness is far deeper than we imagine.
Melissa: The brain is no longer in our heads – it's inside information networks.
More often than not, what's inside people's heads is curiously brainless.
Liao: Inside and outside – they're extensions of each other. Why create any seperation?
