Music students download the technique of their favorite pianist or singer directly into their brains. Medical students download the skills of a seasoned surgeon or diagnostician. And each one of us routinely uploads our thoughts and memories to the digital cloud. While these scenarios still lie in the future, rudimentary versions of the necessary brain-to-brain technology exist today. But the ability to directly influence another person’s brain raises serious questions about human rights and individual freedoms. This program will present the latest technology and explore how the ethical implications of enhanced thinking go to the heart of consciousness itself.

This program is part of the Big Ideas Series, made possible with support from the John Templeton Foundation.

Professor Eric Laithwaite (1921-1997) of Imperial College London demonstrates the difference between magnetic and electro-magnetic motors. Examples futuristic - include minute pump that can fit inside human tissue and a huge test rig to help develop high speed vehicles driven by a linear motor.

This is one of a series of 16mm colour films made for schools. They were all made in Eric Laithwaite's "Heavy Electrical Laboratory" in the Electrical Engineering Department at Imperial College London.

The New Age of Empire takes us back to the beginning of the European Empires, outlining the deliberate terror and suffering wrought during every stage of the expansion, and destroys the self-congratulatory myth that the West was founded on the three great revolutions of science, industry, and politics. Instead, genocide, slavery, and colonialism are the key foundation stones upon which the West was built.

The New Age of Empire (La Nueva Era del Imperio), nos remonta al comienzo de los Imperios Europeos, describiendo el terror deliberado y el sufrimiento causado durante cada etapa de la expansión, y destruye el mito autocomplaciente de que Occidente se fundó sobre las tres grandes revoluciones: ciencia, industria y política. En cambio, el genocidio, la esclavización y el colonialismo son las piedras fundamentales sobre las que se construyó Occidente.

What might seem as waste to Africa’s many herbivores is gold to the Dung Beetle who needs animals dung for its species survival. Not only do these dung beetles gather and roll as much dung as possible but they will even resort to high jacking another’s ball, which it has spent many hours perfecting. But not without a fight.
