The Crowd-Sourcing of Intelligent-Design

Open Sourced Predation

Chris Anderson who has a NASA hat, talking about UAVs that he makes.

This is almost exactly what I was on about before, when I said I wanted to be a bird. It’s creeping closer. One tiny step at a time, towards Bethlehem to be born.

I thought it was mildly amusing how he emphasised (and then emphasised again) the safety angles when we all know that what we really want to do is attach a chainsaw to the front and chase sheep or whatever.

These things were born to be weapons. They’ve got “weapon” written all over their faces – there’s no getting away from it. They’d also be really cool as entertainment, and really useful for umpteen dozen other entirely non-violent and legitimate reasons.

Everyone dreams of flying. Flying is part of the human condition, weirdly enough, because God did not in fact, give us wings.

An ode to Cognitive Surplus.

A celebration of the inventive backwaters of the human spirit... a celebration of people who would appear to have far too much time on their hands...


A celebration of laterality.


If you come they will build it.


By knowledge shall the spheres be filled.
