Uploaded by lcmedia on Jan 4, 2007
In August 2006, Kurt Vonnegut was interviewed on public radio from inside the 3-D virtual on-line community Second Life. The broadcast, produced by Lichtenstein Creative Media for "The Infinite Mind" public radio series, was the first to be taped inside a virtual world, and it was the author's last sit-down interview. In Second Life, Vonnegut appeared with "The Infinite Mind" host John Hockenberry in front of an audience of more than 100 avatars from around the world in Lichtenstein Creative Media's 16-acre virtual broadcast center.

at such a young age, few books have really changed my outlook on life.

We need his books now more than ever. These are dark, dark days for our planet and Kurt understood man's fallibilities as well as any other writer.
