AND SUBJECT – Dr. Ken Shimazu on Witnessing the Birth of New

SUMMARY
OF TALK
Due
to a faulty projector Dr. Shimazu's talk will be repeated on
September 6, this time with a projector that works. Anyway, his four
technologies are the airplane (Wright Brothers), the Xerox copier,
the IBM personal computer and the three-D copier, the latter
with surprising future possible uses.
