ENTERING THE CYBERSPACE ERA
Friday night (tonight) 9:30 pm EST, Feb 12, 2021 (1 hour):
READING: DAVID BRIN AND CATHERINE ASARO
Saturday night, 7:00 pm EST, Feb 13, 2021 (1 hour)
I’m really looking forward to the con. I was their Hal Clement Science Speaker at Boskone 55, and I’d gone to various Boskone as a panelist in previous years. The nice part about doing cons on virtual platforms instead of in person is that folks like myself can participate from almost anywhere. Yay! I get to see many old friends, and I hope news ones as well.
DETAILS ABOUT PANELS

ENTERING THE CYBERSPACE ERA Friday night (tonight) 9:30 pm EST, Feb 12, 2021 (1 hour):
PANELISTS: Catherine Asaro, Cory Doctorow, Beth Meacham, Eric Nunnally, Walter John Williams
DESCRIPTION: It’s easy to dismiss the radical predictions cyberpunk stories made about cyberspace in the 21st century. How far off were they really? Video conferencing, virtual and augmented reality, gaming, online education, the Internet of Things. Let’s look at how far the web, AI, and information technology have come, and speculate about where it’s all going. Will the future be singular and pluralistic?
VIDEO: This item will be recorded and available for viewing by Boskone 58 registrants through the end of February. Go to the item in the schedule for the link to the recording.
