Lifeboat Foundation Interview on Betterhumans
Recently, the Lifeboat Foundation's International Spokesperson, Philippe Van Nedervelde, spoke to the Deputy Editor of Betterhumans, Parish Mozdzierz, on the Lifeboat Foundation, its goals and activities. Here is the first question:
Betterhumans: How did the formation of the Lifeboat Foundation come about?
Philippe Van Nedervelde: Lifeboat Foundation's founder, Eric Klien, was shaken wide awake by 9/11. The new reality of what we call (exponentially accelerating) "Asymmetric Destructive Capability" (ADC) fully hit him: ever smaller groups of people can create ever more enormous amounts of damage. And all of this thanks to advances in technology. As a bracelet-wearing cryonicist, he knew of the potentials of nanotechnology (having attended MIT Nanotechnology Group meetings in the late 1980s), and that 9/11 was just a taste of things to come. Accordingly, the Lifeboat Foundation was incorporated within months of 9/11.
