I’ve been following Mr. Kurzweil for many years. He’s been talking the same talk for too long now. You can learn more about the future in the Crylonet than on TED. One on-ramp to the Crylonet can be found at http://www.phantanima.com . Click on the merchandise icon, then select “Enter The Crylonet”. The future of music can be found at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XJJBUKSPynU or http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6KcAmc6xTPc . Mr. Kurzweil should update his spiel.
