what peter bentley is saying after all is: dear, programmer, we won't need you anymore. bentley developes robots like the snakebot, which can repair themselves. he manipulates material in a way that it can reconfigure itself, builds new electronic circuits with silicium and it seems he likes "terminator II", because he belives in the power of liquid cristal.

programmers in his vision will become gardener, who breed seeds. if they are developing well, they will sell them to their audience, who than can plant them into their computing device. and who knows, if evolution goes on, maybe your word processor will develope into something else ... get a life (audio/x-mpeg, 753 KB)
