Inaugural lecture of Professor Andy Miah, University of the West of Scotland, 23 May 2010:
The year 2010 marks the 10-year anniversary of two technological revolutions -- the genetic and the digital. It is also one of the most prominent years projected as 'the future' in 20th century science fiction.
Professor Miah's inaugural Professorial lecture will discuss his contribution to imagining the future and critiquing the present, by outlining the successes and failures of an emerging technological culture that marks the end of humanism.
If anything you have helped the revival of humanism. Technology is the tool. NOT THE PHILOSOPHY. You have forgotten the sacredness of the golden mean.
