Welcome to Future Human, where we explore the human potential of technology. Much of the technology we take for granted was conceived over decades, forged by an ongoing collaboration between researchers, artists and the keenest engineering minds in the world. As the science fiction of days past becomes everyday reality, where will the next great ideas come from? Listen in as today’s most adventurous and creative thinkers unleash their ideas for a more connected, productive and humane world.

Claude Shannon. “Father of the Information Age.” Inveterate tinkerer. Restless polymath. His work made digital computing possible. Yet he refused to rest on his laurels, always turning his attention to solving the next “problem that interested him most.” Two spiritual descendants, neuroscientists Henry Markram and David Eagleman, are relentlessly focused on uncovering the workings of the brain – perhaps even improving on it.
