1
00:00:00.200 --> 00:00:05.200
<span style="color:mediumblue">《Dr. Broudy》</span>So the idea is that this perception, this impression of real time

2
00:00:05.200 --> 00:00:09.700
omnipresent surveillance motivates the inmates to be on their best behavior.

3
00:00:09.700 --> 00:00:12.400
This, for example, from 2014,

4
00:00:12.400 --> 00:00:17.000
as the EU envisioned the implementation of these new technologies.

5
00:00:17.000 --> 00:00:21.100
Here you have in yellow you can see genetically enhanced humans,

6
00:00:21.100 --> 00:00:26.100
transhumanism and the enhanced mankind, artificially enhanced

7
00:00:26.100 --> 00:00:28.100
the technological singularity.

8
00:00:28.100 --> 00:00:33.600
In 2022, we saw an executive order coming out of President Biden's White House.

9
00:00:33.600 --> 00:00:35.800
And this I thought was quite interesting.

10
00:00:35.800 --> 00:00:37.500
A section of the order,

11
00:00:37.500 --> 00:00:42.800
Genetic engineering technologies techniques we need to pursue these to be able to write circuitry

12
00:00:42.800 --> 00:00:45.300
for cells and predictably program biology

13
00:00:45.300 --> 00:00:48.000
in the same way in which we write software and program computers,

14
00:00:48.000 --> 00:00:51.800
quote, more concentrated, unscrupulous, repressive

15
00:00:51.800 --> 00:00:56.800
and militaristic control by a big business, big government partnership

16
00:00:56.800 --> 00:01:00.000
that would preserve the privileges of the ultra rich,

17
00:01:00.000 --> 00:01:04.100
the corporate overseers and the brass, and the military and civilian order.

18
00:01:04.100 --> 00:01:07.400
<span style="color:mediumblue">《Interviewer》</span>Ladies and gentlemen, welcome.

19
00:01:07.700 --> 00:01:11.600
My name is Vance Evermonde, and I am honored

20
00:01:11.600 --> 00:01:16.600
to be your host today on Kla.TV, the media network.

21
00:01:17.500 --> 00:01:20.800
We have an important discussion ahead,

22
00:01:20.800 --> 00:01:26.200
one that delves into the intersections of technology,

23
00:01:26.200 --> 00:01:28.100
human autonomy,

24
00:01:28.100 --> 00:01:31.100
and the future of society.

25
00:01:32.300 --> 00:01:36.900
Today, we will be exploring the themes

26
00:01:36.900 --> 00:01:39.100
of the research paper,

27
00:01:39.100 --> 00:01:41.000
Cyborgs Are Us,

28
00:01:41.000 --> 00:01:46.300
the Bio-Nano-Panopticon of Injected Bodies,

29
00:01:46.300 --> 00:01:47.600
co-authored

30
00:01:47.600 --> 00:01:50.400
by Dr. Valerie Keary and

31
00:01:50.400 --> 00:01:52.500
Dr. Daniel Broudy.

32
00:01:52.900 --> 00:01:55.800
This work critically examines

33
00:01:55.800 --> 00:01:59.800
the integration of bio-nano technology

34
00:01:59.800 --> 00:02:01.900
into human bodies

35
00:02:01.900 --> 00:02:05.800
and its implications for surveillance,

36
00:02:05.800 --> 00:02:09.600
control and personal sovereignty

37
00:02:09.600 --> 00:02:12.100
in the digital age.

38
00:02:12.900 --> 00:02:18.000
To help us navigate this complex and thought provoking topic,

39
00:02:18.300 --> 00:02:23.100
I am privileged to introduce Dr. Daniel Broudy,

40
00:02:23.200 --> 00:02:26.800
Professor of Applied Linguistics

41
00:02:26.800 --> 00:02:31.100
at Okinawa Christian University in Japan.

42
00:02:31.900 --> 00:02:34.300
With a deep background

43
00:02:34.300 --> 00:02:39.600
in language, media analysis, and critical theory,

44
00:02:39.600 --> 00:02:43.600
Dr. Broudy brings a unique perspective

45
00:02:44.000 --> 00:02:46.700
on the ways power structures

46
00:02:46.700 --> 00:02:51.700
use language and technology to shape public perception.

47
00:02:52.600 --> 00:02:55.700
The questions I will pose today

48
00:02:55.700 --> 00:02:58.900
are designed to provoke deeper thought

49
00:02:58.900 --> 00:03:01.300
and foster awareness

50
00:03:01.300 --> 00:03:06.600
about the key issues raised in Cyborgs Are Us.

51
00:03:07.000 --> 00:03:10.100
They will encourage critical discussions

52
00:03:10.100 --> 00:03:12.800
on technological ethics,

53
00:03:12.800 --> 00:03:15.200
societal impacts,

54
00:03:15.200 --> 00:03:20.200
and the balance between innovation and Human Rights.

55
00:03:20.300 --> 00:03:22.900
So without further ado,

56
00:03:23.200 --> 00:03:24.900
Dr. Broudy,

57
00:03:24.900 --> 00:03:28.400
could you begin by introducing yourself

58
00:03:28.400 --> 00:03:31.600
and sharing what motivated you

59
00:03:31.600 --> 00:03:35.500
to co-author this research paper?

60
00:03:38.000 --> 00:03:44.000
<span style="color:mediumblue">《Dr. Broudy》</span>Thank you, Vance, so much for the invitation to come and talk

61
00:03:44.400 --> 00:03:48.100
and to go over the details that we've been

62
00:03:48.100 --> 00:03:51.800
trying to explore over the past four or five years.

63
00:03:51.800 --> 00:03:55.400
So I appreciate the invitation

64
00:03:55.400 --> 00:03:58.600
and also appreciate the questions.

65
00:03:58.600 --> 00:04:01.900
They're really good questions and I

66
00:04:04.100 --> 00:04:07.400
would like to, I had to take note

67
00:04:07.400 --> 00:04:10.900
because they're very

68
00:04:10.900 --> 00:04:13.300
complex answers to the questions.

69
00:04:13.300 --> 00:04:17.500
So my background is in psycholinguistics,

70
00:04:17.500 --> 00:04:22.700
but my research area has broadened over the past 20 years

71
00:04:22.900 --> 00:04:27.400
and intersected with cognitive linguistics

72
00:04:27.400 --> 00:04:29.500
and neurolinguistics.

73
00:04:29.700 --> 00:04:34.100
I'm really interested in how language,

74
00:04:34.100 --> 00:04:38.600
signs, symbols, colors, sounds,

75
00:04:38.600 --> 00:04:44.800
image, how they're all used in the media landscape

76
00:04:45.300 --> 00:04:46.700
to

77
00:04:46.700 --> 00:04:52.500
influence our perceptions and our emotions of the world around us.

78
00:04:54.000 --> 00:04:59.700
So my research has raised more questions about

79
00:04:59.700 --> 00:05:05.400
the differences between the mediated world and the empirical world.

80
00:05:05.700 --> 00:05:08.900
And it seems to me that more and more,

81
00:05:08.900 --> 00:05:12.100
especially over the past 20 years,

82
00:05:12.100 --> 00:05:13.900
at least since 9-11,

83
00:05:15.600 --> 00:05:19.300
the mediated world has

84
00:05:19.300 --> 00:05:22.500
become increasingly more powerful

85
00:05:22.500 --> 00:05:26.700
over our perceptions of reality

86
00:05:26.700 --> 00:05:28.400
as we're urged

87
00:05:28.400 --> 00:05:31.200
as citizens to pay

88
00:05:31.500 --> 00:05:35.600
more and more attention to the mediation

89
00:05:35.900 --> 00:05:40.400
of the world through the increasing number of screens.

90
00:05:42.000 --> 00:05:46.200
So I've been in Japan doing this work.

91
00:05:46.800 --> 00:05:50.300
I originally came here about 30 years ago.

92
00:05:50.300 --> 00:05:52.600
I was teaching in Korea

93
00:05:52.600 --> 00:05:55.300
for a couple of years and before that,

94
00:05:55.300 --> 00:06:00.300
I was in the military for about seven years, doing imagery analysis.

95
00:06:00.800 --> 00:06:05.800
So a lot of my professional experience when I was in the military

96
00:06:06.800 --> 00:06:11.100
has been very helpful in seeing patterns

97
00:06:11.500 --> 00:06:17.200
in the analysis that I do in language and media.

98
00:06:18.000 --> 00:06:22.200
So that's just, I guess, a brief introduction.

99
00:06:23.200 --> 00:06:24.000
<span style="color:mediumblue">《Interviewer》</span>Great.

100
00:06:26.000 --> 00:06:28.300
Thank you. Thank you, Dr. Broudy.

101
00:06:28.400 --> 00:06:31.000
So my first question

102
00:06:31.000 --> 00:06:34.400
will be this one:

103
00:06:34.700 --> 00:06:38.600
What ethical considerations arise

104
00:06:38.600 --> 00:06:44.100
from integrating bio-nanotechnology into human bodies,

105
00:06:44.100 --> 00:06:47.600
particularly through medical interventions

106
00:06:47.600 --> 00:06:50.800
like mRNA vaccines?

107
00:06:52.100 --> 00:06:55.100
<span style="color:mediumblue">《Dr. Broudy》</span>I think this is a great question.

108
00:06:55.300 --> 00:06:58.200
The term, first of all,

109
00:06:58.200 --> 00:07:01.600
maybe we can just talk briefly about the question itself

110
00:07:01.600 --> 00:07:04.100
and the term intervention.

111
00:07:05.700 --> 00:07:09.500
I really think this is an interesting way

112
00:07:09.500 --> 00:07:13.400
to frame a discussion because

113
00:07:13.800 --> 00:07:17.600
the term intervention,

114
00:07:18.200 --> 00:07:23.000
to me, it kind of frames a kind of assault.

115
00:07:23.500 --> 00:07:27.600
The connotation suggests helplessness

116
00:07:27.800 --> 00:07:30.700
of the object to the intervention

117
00:07:30.700 --> 00:07:35.100
or a kind of self-justified interference or intrusion

118
00:07:35.400 --> 00:07:37.400
against the target.

119
00:07:37.400 --> 00:07:40.200
I imagine, for example,

120
00:07:41.900 --> 00:07:45.300
a drug addict, for example,

121
00:07:45.300 --> 00:07:46.800
whose family

122
00:07:46.800 --> 00:07:50.800
sees it necessary to intervene

123
00:07:51.100 --> 00:07:53.800
in this person's life and

124
00:07:54.200 --> 00:07:59.400
carry out some sort of intrusion that will, you know,

125
00:08:00.000 --> 00:08:03.500
that will help this addict

126
00:08:03.800 --> 00:08:06.400
to recover some normalcy.

127
00:08:06.900 --> 00:08:10.000
And also, if you think of the past,

128
00:08:10.000 --> 00:08:15.300
you know, when so-called "humanitarian interventions", quote-unquote, you know,

129
00:08:15.600 --> 00:08:18.800
were carried out in various African nations,

130
00:08:20.100 --> 00:08:21.400
yeah, these

131
00:08:21.400 --> 00:08:26.100
precipitated any number of preemptive attacks.

132
00:08:26.100 --> 00:08:29.800
The term itself, it reminded me of

133
00:08:30.200 --> 00:08:33.000
Celia Farber's

134
00:08:33.200 --> 00:08:35.600
pretty famous essay, I imagine still,

135
00:08:35.600 --> 00:08:40.000
the 1989 essay in Spin magazine about

136
00:08:42.300 --> 00:08:44.700
the intervention

137
00:08:44.700 --> 00:08:49.200
that was leveled against dying AIDS patients

138
00:08:49.500 --> 00:08:54.200
in this very poisonous AZT drug

139
00:08:54.200 --> 00:08:56.200
that had been

140
00:08:56.500 --> 00:08:59.300
abandoned for cancer patients

141
00:08:59.300 --> 00:09:02.100
was sort of repurposed for,

142
00:09:02.100 --> 00:09:05.600
you know, see how it would work on AIDS patients.

143
00:09:05.600 --> 00:09:09.600
So, you know, the term itself, intervention is really interesting.

144
00:09:09.600 --> 00:09:12.900
And when I think about nanotechnology,

145
00:09:13.400 --> 00:09:16.800
you know, nanotechnology interventions,

146
00:09:17.300 --> 00:09:21.000
I think they can be understood in a very similar light.

147
00:09:23.300 --> 00:09:28.000
It seems to me that no one in power likely knows conclusively,

148
00:09:28.200 --> 00:09:30.500
whether the integration

149
00:09:30.500 --> 00:09:34.400
of nanotechnology with flesh and blood

150
00:09:34.900 --> 00:09:36.900
is actually safe.

151
00:09:38.600 --> 00:09:41.000
And I think this is why

152
00:09:41.000 --> 00:09:44.300
many, many years ago, decades ago,

153
00:09:44.800 --> 00:09:49.700
Antionetta Gatti and Stefano Montanari

154
00:09:49.700 --> 00:09:52.500
pioneered the area of

155
00:09:52.700 --> 00:09:54.600
nanopathology.

156
00:09:54.800 --> 00:09:57.600
So, I think if we really want to,

157
00:09:57.800 --> 00:10:00.900
see the latest research on

158
00:10:00.900 --> 00:10:04.500
these integrations of nanotechnology,

159
00:10:04.500 --> 00:10:09.100
we have to look at the work that they've been doing for many years now.

160
00:10:09.800 --> 00:10:12.900
You know, as any good scientist,

161
00:10:14.200 --> 00:10:19.700
Antionetta and Stefano ask the kinds of questions that

162
00:10:20.200 --> 00:10:23.500
seems to me aren't being asked

163
00:10:23.800 --> 00:10:27.200
today by so-called scientists.

164
00:10:27.600 --> 00:10:32.500
You know, the question of whether nanotechnology is something

165
00:10:32.600 --> 00:10:35.500
that is actually safe

166
00:10:35.500 --> 00:10:39.100
to be integrated with human bodies.

167
00:10:39.100 --> 00:10:42.600
Is it okay, you know, to use these technologies?

168
00:10:43.300 --> 00:10:47.400
And, you know, if so, what are the effects?

169
00:10:47.500 --> 00:10:49.400
You know, we expect,

170
00:10:49.400 --> 00:10:53.600
what are some of the effects we would expect to see on human health?

171
00:10:55.900 --> 00:11:00.800
Any ethical considerations about their uses,

172
00:11:00.800 --> 00:11:03.200
it seems to me have been

173
00:11:05.600 --> 00:11:08.800
sort of hastily reduced to

174
00:11:08.800 --> 00:11:14.000
considerations about their potential profits for investors.

175
00:11:16.000 --> 00:11:21.400
And this like blind march, in my estimation, toward the promise of profits

176
00:11:21.600 --> 00:11:26.500
has translated into lots and lots of casualties.

177
00:11:27.900 --> 00:11:31.000
You know, everyone talks about the lipid nanoparticle, right?

178
00:11:31.000 --> 00:11:32.300
Some

179
00:11:33.700 --> 00:11:38.700
people studying microscopy, doing microscopy studies, say that there are trillions

180
00:11:38.700 --> 00:11:43.400
of these lipid nanoparticles on the loose in bodies,

181
00:11:43.400 --> 00:11:46.200
billions of people all around the world.

182
00:11:46.700 --> 00:11:51.900
So my question would be, why hasn't, you know, mainstream media,

183
00:11:52.100 --> 00:11:58.300
why haven't they done any stories of excess deaths, for example,

184
00:11:58.500 --> 00:12:00.000
in the wake of the,

185
00:12:00.700 --> 00:12:04.300
of the campaign, the initial campaigns,

186
00:12:04.300 --> 00:12:05.600
injection campaigns?

187
00:12:05.600 --> 00:12:06.300
So

188
00:12:07.400 --> 00:12:12.500
this is just some of my thoughts about these quote unquote interventions.

189
00:12:13.700 --> 00:12:17.100
<span style="color:mediumblue">《Interviewer》</span>Sure. Thank you, Dr. Broudy.

190
00:12:17.100 --> 00:12:20.500
So the following question is

191
00:12:20.800 --> 00:12:23.900
about how does the concept

192
00:12:23.900 --> 00:12:28.800
of the bio-nano panopticon reflect

193
00:12:28.800 --> 00:12:32.800
the potential for technological surveillance

194
00:12:32.800 --> 00:12:36.200
within our biological systems?

195
00:12:37.700 --> 00:12:41.000
<span style="color:mediumblue">《Dr. Broudy》</span>Well, this is Bentham's

196
00:12:41.000 --> 00:12:45.200
18th century idea, right?

197
00:12:45.200 --> 00:12:48.000
About social theory idea about

198
00:12:50.800 --> 00:12:53.900
prisons and

199
00:12:53.900 --> 00:12:58.500
how to rehabilitate or incarcerate.

200
00:12:59.000 --> 00:13:02.500
I think those ideas are

201
00:13:02.500 --> 00:13:05.400
actually, you know, quite important today.

202
00:13:06.300 --> 00:13:09.500
Very prescient. He was referring to

203
00:13:10.000 --> 00:13:12.700
a prison in which inmates,

204
00:13:12.700 --> 00:13:18.100
they don't know if or when they're being surveilled, being watched.

205
00:13:18.400 --> 00:13:20.300
And so the idea is that

206
00:13:20.300 --> 00:13:24.400
this perception, this impression of real time

207
00:13:24.400 --> 00:13:28.300
omnipresent surveillance motivates the inmates,

208
00:13:28.300 --> 00:13:30.900
to be on their best behavior.

209
00:13:31.700 --> 00:13:34.100
You know, where have we heard that before?

210
00:13:34.200 --> 00:13:38.100
Very, very recently, within the past few weeks.

211
00:13:39.200 --> 00:13:43.200
This is precisely what we're hearing. You know,

212
00:13:43.200 --> 00:13:48.300
the technocrats talking, technocrats and their minions talking about today.

213
00:13:49.000 --> 00:13:53.600
I prepared a slide, if you'd like me to

214
00:13:54.100 --> 00:13:57.500
share some of the details of what this might look like.

215
00:13:57.500 --> 00:14:02.500
I believe this is from a paper from 2015

216
00:14:02.500 --> 00:14:06.300
on the Internet of Bionano things.

217
00:14:06.600 --> 00:14:10.500
This is a figure that is quite interesting.

218
00:14:10.800 --> 00:14:13.500
You can see

219
00:14:14.400 --> 00:14:16.700
that the components

220
00:14:16.700 --> 00:14:20.700
of the Internet of Bionano things is comprised

221
00:14:20.800 --> 00:14:24.500
of nano-nodes, nano-routers,

222
00:14:25.700 --> 00:14:29.700
nano-micro-interface devices,

223
00:14:29.700 --> 00:14:35.900
bio-cyber-interfaces, gateways, and application-specific servers.

224
00:14:36.100 --> 00:14:41.600
I guess what we're seeing here, it's difficult to see from the text alone, but,

225
00:14:42.600 --> 00:14:45.600
the idea is that

226
00:14:45.600 --> 00:14:50.000
bodies, blood, and brains

227
00:14:50.300 --> 00:14:53.500
will serve as media

228
00:14:53.500 --> 00:14:55.200
to,

229
00:14:59.200 --> 00:15:02.500
they'll serve as media to,

230
00:15:03.700 --> 00:15:07.600
it's hard to conceptualize, the body as a,

231
00:15:07.600 --> 00:15:10.700
maybe as a, as the architecture,

232
00:15:12.100 --> 00:15:15.400
for connectivity.

233
00:15:15.600 --> 00:15:17.400
You can see,

234
00:15:17.400 --> 00:15:19.800
maybe I can like illustrate this

235
00:15:21.000 --> 00:15:23.900
in this slide, so you can see

236
00:15:24.800 --> 00:15:29.200
how sort of nano, micro, and macro scale devices

237
00:15:29.200 --> 00:15:33.400
will perform various tasks such as

238
00:15:33.900 --> 00:15:37.800
data sensing, transmission, and computation.

239
00:15:38.300 --> 00:15:39.600
I suppose

240
00:15:39.600 --> 00:15:44.500
if you thought of your laptop or your smartphone,

241
00:15:44.900 --> 00:15:49.400
the IOBNT, the Internet of Bio-Nano Things, is comprised of

242
00:15:49.400 --> 00:15:52.100
various components that carry out

243
00:15:52.300 --> 00:15:54.500
a range of similar tasks.

244
00:15:54.500 --> 00:15:55.300
So,

245
00:15:55.800 --> 00:15:59.900
you can imagine your flesh and blood are now

246
00:16:00.200 --> 00:16:04.100
form part of the, you know, integrated circuits in the,

247
00:16:04.600 --> 00:16:07.000
the global central nervous system.

248
00:16:07.100 --> 00:16:12.100
You have the nano scale, micro scale, and macro scale

249
00:16:12.100 --> 00:16:14.800
devices here.

250
00:16:15.900 --> 00:16:19.400
<span style="color:mediumblue">《Interviewer》</span>Okay. Very good. Thank you very much, very impressive, actually.

251
00:16:20.600 --> 00:16:25.500
And, my following question is about

252
00:16:25.500 --> 00:16:27.900
what are the implications

253
00:16:27.900 --> 00:16:32.200
of such technologies on personal privacy

254
00:16:32.200 --> 00:16:35.000
and bodily autonomy?

255
00:16:35.700 --> 00:16:39.300
<span style="color:mediumblue">《Dr. Broudy》</span>It seems to me that because bodies and brains

256
00:16:39.300 --> 00:16:42.800
will be connected to the Internet

257
00:16:42.800 --> 00:16:44.400
in real time.

258
00:16:45.500 --> 00:16:48.400
Privacy and bodily autonomy

259
00:16:48.400 --> 00:16:50.100
will disappear.

260
00:16:51.600 --> 00:16:53.100
In the United States,

261
00:16:53.300 --> 00:16:58.300
you know, there's the Fourth Amendment to the Constitution that limits

262
00:16:58.500 --> 00:17:02.700
and prohibits the government from conducting unwarranted

263
00:17:02.700 --> 00:17:04.800
searches and seizures.

264
00:17:05.700 --> 00:17:11.600
Well, these new technologies leave citizens exposed to intrusion,

265
00:17:11.600 --> 00:17:12.400
you know,

266
00:17:12.600 --> 00:17:14.500
not just of

267
00:17:14.500 --> 00:17:18.200
house and home, but the biological housing

268
00:17:18.700 --> 00:17:21.800
of your soul, your mind.

269
00:17:24.000 --> 00:17:29.000
Yeah, I think if this all sounds kind of like science fiction,

270
00:17:30.300 --> 00:17:31.600
it does seem,

271
00:17:31.600 --> 00:17:38.000
it does seem quite absurd, even the slides that I've shown you from these scholarly papers.

272
00:17:38.100 --> 00:17:43.800
If it does seem like science fiction, you know, consider the extent to which,

273
00:17:44.300 --> 00:17:49.100
say, the technologies have already been well established

274
00:17:49.300 --> 00:17:53.800
in policy papers and executive orders throughout

275
00:17:54.000 --> 00:17:58.400
Europe, the UK, Canada,

276
00:17:58.400 --> 00:18:00.800
the United States, Australia.

277
00:18:01.100 --> 00:18:03.000
I thought it would be

278
00:18:03.700 --> 00:18:06.400
nice to point to

279
00:18:06.400 --> 00:18:10.100
some of the evidence in policies.

280
00:18:10.100 --> 00:18:13.600
This, for example, from 2014,

281
00:18:13.600 --> 00:18:18.300
the EU envisions

282
00:18:18.600 --> 00:18:22.900
the implementation of these new technologies.

283
00:18:27.900 --> 00:18:30.900
You can see I've highlighted some

284
00:18:32.200 --> 00:18:34.700
interesting sections in here.

285
00:18:34.700 --> 00:18:37.000
I think the whole document is very interesting,

286
00:18:37.000 --> 00:18:38.200
but

287
00:18:38.900 --> 00:18:40.100
very telling.

288
00:18:40.100 --> 00:18:43.500
But here you have in yellow, you can see

289
00:18:44.800 --> 00:18:48.900
genetically enhanced humans, transhumanism,

290
00:18:48.900 --> 00:18:53.100
and the enhanced mankind, artificially enhanced,

291
00:18:53.500 --> 00:18:55.900
the technological singularity.

292
00:18:55.900 --> 00:18:57.800
I mean, this is like

293
00:18:58.800 --> 00:19:00.100
long-term.

294
00:19:03.600 --> 00:19:07.400
So, you can also see, I don't know if you can see the pointer here,

295
00:19:07.900 --> 00:19:09.200
my cursor?

296
00:19:09.400 --> 00:19:12.600
<span style="color:mediumblue">《Interviewer》</span>Yes, yes, I do. And...

297
00:19:13.300 --> 00:19:14.300
<span style="color:mediumblue">《Dr. Broudy》</span>Yeah, the NBIC.

298
00:19:14.300 --> 00:19:16.200
We will talk about that

299
00:19:18.100 --> 00:19:20.300
in more detail in a little bit.

300
00:19:21.600 --> 00:19:26.100
So, you know, keep in mind, this is 2014.

301
00:19:29.300 --> 00:19:31.200
You can see

302
00:19:32.200 --> 00:19:35.100
this slide kind of struck me

303
00:19:35.100 --> 00:19:37.100
because of

304
00:19:37.100 --> 00:19:39.100
what seems to be,

305
00:19:40.200 --> 00:19:43.200
the call for

306
00:19:43.200 --> 00:19:46.000
these technological interventions

307
00:19:46.900 --> 00:19:50.100
in the name of securing peace

308
00:19:50.100 --> 00:19:53.300
and security or peace and safety.

309
00:19:53.400 --> 00:19:56.500
And this actually

310
00:19:57.200 --> 00:20:01.500
put me in mind of a passage in

311
00:20:01.700 --> 00:20:05.600
the New Testament, the Thessalonians,

312
00:20:06.000 --> 00:20:10.500
"for when they say peace and safety, then sudden destruction will come upon them".

313
00:20:12.000 --> 00:20:15.200
So, we can see today

314
00:20:15.200 --> 00:20:21.300
many calls for peace and safety or peace and security

315
00:20:22.500 --> 00:20:25.300
as a, it seems like

316
00:20:25.300 --> 00:20:30.900
a pretext for many kinds of interventions, of course.

317
00:20:31.200 --> 00:20:35.900
We have the technological or the technocratic interventions here.

318
00:20:36.300 --> 00:20:41.100
In 2022, we saw an executive order coming out of

319
00:20:41.100 --> 00:20:43.300
President Biden's White House.

320
00:20:44.700 --> 00:20:47.400
And this I thought was quite interesting.

321
00:20:47.400 --> 00:20:49.300
A section of the order,

322
00:20:49.300 --> 00:20:52.100
"Genetic engineering technologies

323
00:20:52.100 --> 00:20:56.600
techniques we need to pursue these to be able to write circuitry

324
00:20:56.600 --> 00:20:59.800
for cells and predictably program biology

325
00:21:00.100 --> 00:21:03.900
in the same way in which we write software and program computers".

326
00:21:05.000 --> 00:21:08.000
It seems to me that this is just

327
00:21:08.000 --> 00:21:11.100
more of the same

328
00:21:11.800 --> 00:21:14.100
conceptualizing

329
00:21:14.100 --> 00:21:18.900
the body as a machine, very reductive thinking about

330
00:21:20.600 --> 00:21:26.200
dynamic, complex biological processes

331
00:21:26.900 --> 00:21:32.700
and how human beings tend to oversimplify and use these.

332
00:21:34.100 --> 00:21:38.000
I think on one hand very good metaphors, but

333
00:21:38.800 --> 00:21:41.300
they're misleading metaphors, too.

334
00:21:41.300 --> 00:21:44.700
Every, so many people think of, you know,

335
00:21:45.500 --> 00:21:48.300
biological mechanisms as machinery.

336
00:21:48.700 --> 00:21:50.900
It's useful on one hand, but

337
00:21:51.400 --> 00:21:53.700
not at all on the other.

338
00:21:54.500 --> 00:21:57.900
And then you have in Canada,

339
00:21:57.900 --> 00:22:00.300
the exploration,

340
00:22:00.300 --> 00:22:05.000
the policy positions exploring biodigital convergence, which

341
00:22:06.400 --> 00:22:11.800
the head of the World Economic Forum has been talking about for some time.

342
00:22:14.600 --> 00:22:20.800
The integration of the digital identity and the biological identity, et cetera.

343
00:22:21.600 --> 00:22:25.000
So these are all, these can be found

344
00:22:25.000 --> 00:22:28.900
in government position papers and white papers

345
00:22:29.100 --> 00:22:30.200
and policies.

346
00:22:30.200 --> 00:22:31.400
And then you have

347
00:22:32.000 --> 00:22:35.000
the EU that spent a billion,

348
00:22:35.200 --> 00:22:37.400
a billion euro, I believe,

349
00:22:37.600 --> 00:22:43.200
on nanotechnology, graphene, and then

350
00:22:44.300 --> 00:22:48.600
the UK's human augmentation, the dawn of a new paradigm.

351
00:22:48.600 --> 00:22:54.400
So lots of really interesting transhumanist interventions.

352
00:22:56.500 --> 00:23:00.300
<span style="color:mediumblue">《Interviewer》</span>So now, my following question is,

353
00:23:00.500 --> 00:23:03.700
in what ways might

354
00:23:03.700 --> 00:23:08.100
bio nanotechnology alter the relationship

355
00:23:08.100 --> 00:23:14.200
between individuals and governing bodies or corporations?

356
00:23:15.600 --> 00:23:20.200
<span style="color:mediumblue">《Dr. Broudy》</span>I would say the distinction between,

357
00:23:20.200 --> 00:23:22.400
if I understand your question correctly,

358
00:23:22.400 --> 00:23:24.900
the distinction between

359
00:23:26.000 --> 00:23:29.300
governing bodies and corporations.

360
00:23:29.300 --> 00:23:33.100
So governing bodies would be like governments,

361
00:23:33.100 --> 00:23:34.500
I imagine.

362
00:23:34.500 --> 00:23:38.400
I think you can argue it is effectively erased.

363
00:23:39.600 --> 00:23:42.500
Was it Mussolini who said that, you know,

364
00:23:42.500 --> 00:23:46.200
fascism is the marriage of industry and state?

365
00:23:48.000 --> 00:23:52.600
Yeah, Bertram Gross actually covered this really beautifully

366
00:23:52.600 --> 00:23:55.500
in 1980 in his book,

367
00:23:56.300 --> 00:23:58.000
"Friendly Fascism".

368
00:23:58.000 --> 00:24:02.500
And he warned about a new form of fascism germinating

369
00:24:02.500 --> 00:24:05.400
in the world, you know, the post World War II

370
00:24:05.400 --> 00:24:09.100
world, which kind of

371
00:24:09.100 --> 00:24:12.900
is, you know, dressed up and fancy

372
00:24:12.900 --> 00:24:16.600
and comes to you with a wink and a smile and, you know,

373
00:24:16.600 --> 00:24:19.800
promise of peace and security and

374
00:24:19.800 --> 00:24:23.000
speed and efficiency.

375
00:24:23.900 --> 00:24:28.000
Everything, everyone wants in a world where,

376
00:24:28.000 --> 00:24:33.700
we're pressed into service and nine-to-five jobs and

377
00:24:34.000 --> 00:24:35.600
how, you know, what's life all about?

378
00:24:35.600 --> 00:24:38.400
We're asking these questions about what is life about?

379
00:24:38.400 --> 00:24:43.400
And, we're spending most of our waking hours trying to commute to work.

380
00:24:43.400 --> 00:24:47.700
So, Bertram Gross talked about this at great length.

381
00:24:47.700 --> 00:24:51.300
It's a brilliant book. I would highly recommend it,

382
00:24:51.500 --> 00:24:53.100
Friendly Fascism.

383
00:24:53.900 --> 00:24:56.500
So, he's writing about,

384
00:24:56.500 --> 00:25:02.300
the really sophisticated systems of information collection and

385
00:25:02.800 --> 00:25:07.400
kind of like emerging forms of remote electronic surveillance.

386
00:25:07.600 --> 00:25:11.900
And it's amazing that he saw this,

387
00:25:11.900 --> 00:25:13.700
you know, in the 1970s.

388
00:25:13.700 --> 00:25:15.700
He produced this book.

389
00:25:16.100 --> 00:25:21.100
And one of his observations is, particularly prescient today,

390
00:25:21.100 --> 00:25:26.100
is a kind of beguiling sort of fascism has arisen.

391
00:25:26.400 --> 00:25:30.000
And I want to get the quote just right.

392
00:25:30.500 --> 00:25:33.500
And, "more concentrated,

393
00:25:33.500 --> 00:25:36.000
unscrupulous, repressive

394
00:25:36.000 --> 00:25:38.100
and militaristic control

395
00:25:38.100 --> 00:25:41.500
by a big business - big government partnership,

396
00:25:42.300 --> 00:25:45.600
that would preserve the privileges of the ultra rich,

397
00:25:45.600 --> 00:25:50.100
the corporate overseers and the brass in the military and civilian order".

398
00:25:50.300 --> 00:25:53.900
Now, if that's not, an image of

399
00:25:54.000 --> 00:25:58.700
what we see today you know in these public private partnerships and

400
00:25:59.200 --> 00:26:03.300
the rise of all these global forums

401
00:26:03.300 --> 00:26:07.500
of unelected people making decisions for

402
00:26:07.500 --> 00:26:09.800
citizens, human beings,

403
00:26:10.300 --> 00:26:14.600
I don't know what is, I mean it's a brilliant description there.

404
00:26:15.600 --> 00:26:19.700
And you know it certainly appears I would say

405
00:26:19.700 --> 00:26:24.600
we're now witnessing a new form of technocratic order

406
00:26:24.600 --> 00:26:27.700
taking seats of power and authority.

407
00:26:29.200 --> 00:26:35.400
So the relationship between new classes of citizens, or subjects

408
00:26:35.400 --> 00:26:38.000
we can say, will essentially be

409
00:26:38.000 --> 00:26:41.000
a relationship of master and servant.

410
00:26:41.500 --> 00:26:43.900
And it seems a lot of people

411
00:26:44.400 --> 00:26:46.900
don't want to

412
00:26:46.900 --> 00:26:49.800
or can't see this like tidal wave

413
00:26:49.800 --> 00:26:52.700
of technocratic control coming

414
00:26:53.500 --> 00:26:56.600
which is I think part of the

415
00:26:56.600 --> 00:26:59.800
the problem that we all face is that

416
00:26:59.900 --> 00:27:02.400
how do you...,

417
00:27:03.100 --> 00:27:05.900
how do you help people coax them

418
00:27:06.100 --> 00:27:08.400
into

419
00:27:08.400 --> 00:27:12.000
seeing what's unfolding around them.

420
00:27:13.000 --> 00:27:16.800
To look away from their smartphones or

421
00:27:16.800 --> 00:27:20.400
you know from the one screen or another screen

422
00:27:21.500 --> 00:27:25.000
and awaken people to

423
00:27:25.400 --> 00:27:27.300
what's unfolding.

424
00:27:27.300 --> 00:27:28.800
Big, big problem.

425
00:27:31.600 --> 00:27:33.600
<span style="color:mediumblue">《Interviewer》</span>Could...,

426
00:27:33.600 --> 00:27:38.200
the integration of these technologies exacerbate

427
00:27:38.200 --> 00:27:42.400
existing inequalities in healthcare access

428
00:27:42.400 --> 00:27:47.100
or create new form of societal stratification?

429
00:27:49.900 --> 00:27:54.100
<span style="color:mediumblue">《Dr. Broudy》</span>I think you can get a pretty nice sense of

430
00:27:54.100 --> 00:27:57.400
stratification, social stratification

431
00:27:57.600 --> 00:28:01.800
if you look back at the Proteus documents

432
00:28:01.800 --> 00:28:04.300
that came out in

433
00:28:04.300 --> 00:28:10.100
the mid-2000s, I think 2007, 2008,

434
00:28:10.400 --> 00:28:15.700
and the goal of the Proteus project was to offer

435
00:28:16.100 --> 00:28:20.000
this kind of like expert commentary

436
00:28:20.400 --> 00:28:22.400
that will help

437
00:28:22.400 --> 00:28:26.400
strategic and high level decision makers and

438
00:28:26.400 --> 00:28:29.400
planners and analysts with

439
00:28:30.200 --> 00:28:33.300
kind of like, I think

440
00:28:33.300 --> 00:28:38.600
they say like out-of-the-box or like outside-the-box considerations

441
00:28:39.200 --> 00:28:41.800
for analysis of national

442
00:28:41.800 --> 00:28:44.600
military intelligence issues.

443
00:28:44.900 --> 00:28:48.400
And this was within what was called the

444
00:28:48.500 --> 00:28:54.800
Joint, Inter-agency, Inter-governmental, and Multinational environment.

445
00:28:55.400 --> 00:28:58.300
Nice acronym, JIIM.

446
00:28:59.400 --> 00:29:04.800
What was envisioned in Proteus were ESIs,

447
00:29:05.000 --> 00:29:07.800
which were people

448
00:29:07.800 --> 00:29:10.800
who would one day populate the world.

449
00:29:11.400 --> 00:29:13.800
Exceedingly,

450
00:29:13.800 --> 00:29:17.000
exceedingly high-functioning people,

451
00:29:17.000 --> 00:29:18.900
ESIs.

452
00:29:19.600 --> 00:29:21.800
So you can see

453
00:29:21.800 --> 00:29:24.900
the new concept of social strata

454
00:29:24.900 --> 00:29:28.800
in the names that are given to people,

455
00:29:28.800 --> 00:29:31.500
to classes of people like the "tweaked",

456
00:29:31.800 --> 00:29:34.300
the "freaked", and the "geeked.

457
00:29:35.900 --> 00:29:38.000
Should I expand?

458
00:29:38.000 --> 00:29:41.000
<span style="color:mediumblue">《Interviewer》</span>Yes, if it is possible, because I'm not sure

459
00:29:41.000 --> 00:29:44.600
our audience is familiar with this.

460
00:29:44.600 --> 00:29:48.200
<span style="color:mediumblue">《Dr. Broudy》</span>So, the tweaked are,

461
00:29:48.500 --> 00:29:51.100
the tweaked's abilities,

462
00:29:51.100 --> 00:29:56.600
they come from the integration of singularity technologies

463
00:29:57.100 --> 00:30:00.300
with individuals' biological systems.

464
00:30:02.200 --> 00:30:06.200
So you have like biofeedback and virtual reality.

465
00:30:06.400 --> 00:30:09.100
Also, people achieve like

466
00:30:09.100 --> 00:30:11.700
exceptional mental states.

467
00:30:15.200 --> 00:30:17.000
<span style="color:mediumblue">《Interviewer》</span>It's incredible, incredible.

468
00:30:17.000 --> 00:30:17.700
<span style="color:mediumblue">《Dr. Broudy》</span>Yeah,

469
00:30:17.900 --> 00:30:22.700
you have like this will be, so the tweaked will be,

470
00:30:23.900 --> 00:30:27.700
the category of the tweaked will be offered to like a select

471
00:30:28.000 --> 00:30:30.500
number, a select group

472
00:30:31.000 --> 00:30:31.700
of people.

473
00:30:31.700 --> 00:30:33.900
They'll have like access to

474
00:30:34.200 --> 00:30:37.400
quote -unquote "longevity technologies",

475
00:30:37.700 --> 00:30:41.700
and they'll be able to leverage the advantages to

476
00:30:41.700 --> 00:30:44.100
live for decades longer

477
00:30:44.700 --> 00:30:46.600
than ordinary.

478
00:30:47.200 --> 00:30:49.800
And the tweaked are,

479
00:30:50.100 --> 00:30:56.100
it's envisioned that the tweaked will comprise sort of like the mainstream

480
00:30:56.500 --> 00:31:00.100
ESIs, those who,

481
00:31:00.700 --> 00:31:04.100
will benefit most from these broad

482
00:31:04.600 --> 00:31:07.600
front of technologies.

483
00:31:07.700 --> 00:31:09.700
And then you've got the freaked.

484
00:31:11.900 --> 00:31:15.800
These are like quote -unquote "new creations",

485
00:31:15.800 --> 00:31:18.000
you know, cyborgs or,

486
00:31:18.000 --> 00:31:23.400
humans with significant mechanized parts.

487
00:31:23.400 --> 00:31:26.200
You might remember

488
00:31:26.200 --> 00:31:29.400
from the 70's, the Six Million Dollar Man.

489
00:31:29.500 --> 00:31:30.600
<span style="color:mediumblue">《Interviewer》</span>Yeah.

490
00:31:30.600 --> 00:31:31.900
<span style="color:mediumblue">《Dr. Broudy》</span>You remember that show?

491
00:31:32.000 --> 00:31:34.400
<span style="color:mediumblue">《Interviewer》</span>Yeah, I remember that was a,

492
00:31:34.400 --> 00:31:37.200
I remember it was a series,

493
00:31:38.100 --> 00:31:40.000
an episode. I was...

494
00:31:40.000 --> 00:31:43.000
I'm old enough to remember.

495
00:31:43.000 --> 00:31:45.600
<span style="color:mediumblue">《Dr. Broudy》</span>Yes, I Remember that too.

496
00:31:47.600 --> 00:31:49.700
So, yeah, this

497
00:31:49.700 --> 00:31:53.500
this category reminded me of, like, Steve Austin,

498
00:31:53.500 --> 00:31:57.100
man barely alive, but we can rebuild him, right?

499
00:31:58.600 --> 00:32:02.300
So AI-guided robots, clones

500
00:32:02.300 --> 00:32:05.200
designed for single functions,

501
00:32:05.500 --> 00:32:08.900
group minds operating through open source

502
00:32:08.900 --> 00:32:12.700
mental systems via embedded quantum chips.

503
00:32:13.600 --> 00:32:16.500
And the freaked

504
00:32:16.500 --> 00:32:21.100
will be seen as, like, kind of the outliers of the singularity.

505
00:32:24.600 --> 00:32:28.200
And then you've got the last category,

506
00:32:28.200 --> 00:32:30.600
which are the geeked,

507
00:32:31.300 --> 00:32:36.400
and these are individuals who are probably on the lower strata.

508
00:32:36.500 --> 00:32:39.500
They're unenhanced individuals

509
00:32:39.500 --> 00:32:42.700
who depend upon, like, wearables.

510
00:32:43.400 --> 00:32:47.000
You know, external devices.

511
00:32:47.000 --> 00:32:52.100
I suppose you can put a lot of people today in this category, you know,

512
00:32:53.000 --> 00:32:57.300
we're a bunch of geeks walking around with our mobile phones,

513
00:32:58.100 --> 00:33:02.700
and we have to use these to achieve a kind of competitive edge

514
00:33:02.700 --> 00:33:04.800
in this future

515
00:33:06.600 --> 00:33:08.900
global society.

516
00:33:11.100 --> 00:33:14.100
We'll have some access to supercomputing

517
00:33:14.100 --> 00:33:16.400
and control of

518
00:33:16.400 --> 00:33:20.300
virtual worlds leveraged into real-world advantage.

519
00:33:21.500 --> 00:33:22.800
And...

520
00:33:24.300 --> 00:33:27.000
<span style="color:mediumblue">《Interviewer》</span>Yes, you continue, Dr. Broudy.

521
00:33:27.800 --> 00:33:31.000
<span style="color:mediumblue">《Dr. Broudy》</span>And so, yeah,

522
00:33:31.000 --> 00:33:36.900
so it's observed back, even back in 2007, 2008, that

523
00:33:36.900 --> 00:33:39.600
the geeked are essentially already with us.

524
00:33:39.600 --> 00:33:42.400
You know, they're in high-tech industry.

525
00:33:44.900 --> 00:33:48.200
So, like, many of the abilities that's been observed

526
00:33:48.200 --> 00:33:52.100
that we owe to technology

527
00:33:52.100 --> 00:33:55.800
would probably have been considered magic.

528
00:34:01.000 --> 00:34:03.100
<span style="color:mediumblue">《Interviewer》</span>I was just wondering, like,

529
00:34:03.100 --> 00:34:08.000
how the first category that you mentioned earlier.

530
00:34:08.300 --> 00:34:13.700
You know, how the people will be selected, would it be,

531
00:34:13.700 --> 00:34:16.900
if you have money, you can

532
00:34:16.900 --> 00:34:22.000
you can apply for having all this enhancement, or

533
00:34:22.800 --> 00:34:24.700
the people will be chosen

534
00:34:24.700 --> 00:34:29.400
who will be in the first category of the three you mentioned?

535
00:34:31.100 --> 00:34:32.800
<span style="color:mediumblue">《Dr. Broudy》</span>That's a great question.

536
00:34:32.800 --> 00:34:37.700
It seems to me that we're already, self-selecting.

537
00:34:38.800 --> 00:34:41.700
I mean that, for example,

538
00:34:41.700 --> 00:34:46.700
in some parts of Europe, some countries in Europe,

539
00:34:46.700 --> 00:34:49.000
from reports that I've heard,

540
00:34:50.300 --> 00:34:53.000
some especially young people

541
00:34:53.900 --> 00:34:56.500
are already lining up for their,

542
00:34:57.400 --> 00:34:59.600
you know, for their...

543
00:34:59.600 --> 00:35:02.700
excuse me, for their freak, or their tweak.

544
00:35:04.800 --> 00:35:08.400
And they want to be integrated, for example, with

545
00:35:09.200 --> 00:35:14.200
new chips that will, you know, connect them to the

546
00:35:14.700 --> 00:35:17.200
financial services.

547
00:35:19.600 --> 00:35:22.300
<span style="color:mediumblue">《Interviewer》</span>So, these

548
00:35:22.300 --> 00:35:27.300
three categories that you mentioned will be the servant, right?

549
00:35:28.100 --> 00:35:31.400
Not the, you know, the masters are above them.

550
00:35:31.400 --> 00:35:33.700
You know, the three that you mentioned

551
00:35:33.700 --> 00:35:38.900
would be considered the servant of the, what we call the crypto rulers.

552
00:35:39.800 --> 00:35:42.400
<span style="color:mediumblue">《Dr. Broudy》</span>That's what it seems to be,

553
00:35:45.100 --> 00:35:47.300
that appears to be.

554
00:35:48.700 --> 00:35:52.400
Yeah, so some servants will have

555
00:35:53.200 --> 00:35:56.800
exceptionally high ability.

556
00:36:00.900 --> 00:36:03.000
I suppose

557
00:36:03.000 --> 00:36:06.100
one way that you can think about it is

558
00:36:08.900 --> 00:36:14.400
the new films that have been exceptionally

559
00:36:15.000 --> 00:36:19.000
popular over the past, at least 10 years,

560
00:36:20.100 --> 00:36:21.900
Avengers and

561
00:36:21.900 --> 00:36:25.800
super, the superhero genre,

562
00:36:26.500 --> 00:36:32.500
where you begin to see almost a cultural conditioning

563
00:36:33.300 --> 00:36:37.500
of upgraded entities.

564
00:36:39.800 --> 00:36:43.000
Yeah, so, what I'm talking about,

565
00:36:43.000 --> 00:36:45.000
it seems so...

566
00:36:46.400 --> 00:36:49.200
it seems so science fiction.

567
00:36:50.600 --> 00:36:53.500
So, incredibly absurd,

568
00:36:53.500 --> 00:36:54.600
but,

569
00:36:55.500 --> 00:36:59.000
it's there in the literature.

570
00:37:00.300 --> 00:37:02.400
<span style="color:mediumblue">《Interviewer》</span>Dr. Broudy, where

571
00:37:02.400 --> 00:37:05.900
can our audience  find your work?

572
00:37:05.900 --> 00:37:08.500
Like, if they want to know more,

573
00:37:08.500 --> 00:37:10.300
where, you know,

574
00:37:10.300 --> 00:37:15.700
can you give them some information about where they can find your work?

575
00:37:18.000 --> 00:37:22.100
<span style="color:mediumblue">《Dr. Broudy》</span>Well, I'm a co-editor for a journal,

576
00:37:22.100 --> 00:37:24.500
Propaganda in Focus.

577
00:37:25.500 --> 00:37:29.500
Some of the articles that, over the past

578
00:37:30.100 --> 00:37:36.000
few years, focused mostly on COVID issues,

579
00:37:36.300 --> 00:37:39.400
Transhumanism, you can find them there.

580
00:37:40.600 --> 00:37:43.600
It's an interdisciplinary journal.

581
00:37:44.500 --> 00:37:48.500
Lots of really interesting contributors to the journal.

582
00:37:49.200 --> 00:37:52.500
Not just in transhumanism, but,

583
00:37:52.500 --> 00:37:56.700
issues that of public import,

584
00:37:56.700 --> 00:37:59.200
where people

585
00:37:59.700 --> 00:38:01.600
write about

586
00:38:03.600 --> 00:38:09.200
all sorts of forms and practices and techniques of propagandizing.

587
00:38:09.800 --> 00:38:11.000
So,

588
00:38:12.300 --> 00:38:15.600
probably Propaganda in Focus would be

589
00:38:18.000 --> 00:38:20.200
a good resource.

590
00:38:20.900 --> 00:38:23.400
The other,

591
00:38:23.400 --> 00:38:26.000
I suppose, a bibliography

592
00:38:27.200 --> 00:38:29.500
on ResearchGate.

593
00:38:29.500 --> 00:38:33.400
Some of the selections of research that I've done and published

594
00:38:33.400 --> 00:38:35.300
can be found on

595
00:38:35.300 --> 00:38:36.900
ResearchGate.

596
00:38:37.800 --> 00:38:42.500
<span style="color:mediumblue">《Interviewer》</span>Really, I would like to say thank you very much,

597
00:38:42.500 --> 00:38:44.200
Dr. Broudy.

598
00:38:44.200 --> 00:38:50.100
It's very, very, very informative and very fascinating research.

599
00:38:51.000 --> 00:38:54.600
Are you working on a future project,

600
00:38:54.600 --> 00:38:57.500
a research project, at this time?

601
00:38:58.000 --> 00:39:03.000
<span style="color:mediumblue">《Dr. Broudy》</span>I'm working on a book with my collaborators in this area.

602
00:39:04.200 --> 00:39:08.000
We've been bouncing around a few titles.

603
00:39:08.600 --> 00:39:11.900
I think we're near titling the new book.

604
00:39:11.900 --> 00:39:16.900
It's a collection of previous essays and new material

605
00:39:17.900 --> 00:39:21.100
that I think will be very surprising.

606
00:39:22.200 --> 00:39:24.200
Very, yeah, very surprising.

607
00:39:24.900 --> 00:39:28.300
We've been doing a deep dive on

608
00:39:28.600 --> 00:39:32.300
the white papers, especially, that have been published.

609
00:39:33.100 --> 00:39:37.900
We expect sometime in the autumn to have it out.

610
00:39:39.500 --> 00:39:43.200
Most of it's written. It needs to be edited.

611
00:39:46.100 --> 00:39:48.600
So, yeah, we'll have that out,

612
00:39:48.600 --> 00:39:50.800
hopefully, in the autumn.

613
00:39:51.200 --> 00:39:52.700
<span style="color:mediumblue">《Interviewer》</span>Very good. Very good.

614
00:39:52.700 --> 00:39:56.000
I wish you good luck, Dr. Broudy. Thank you so much.

615
00:39:56.700 --> 00:39:57.600
<span style="color:mediumblue">《Dr. Broudy》</span>Thank you.

616
00:39:58.100 --> 00:39:59.200
Have a nice day.

617
00:39:59.400 --> 00:40:00.900
<span style="color:mediumblue">《Interviewer》</span>You too. You too.
