April 4, Wednesday, 7:00 PM @ Borders Bookstore, Santa Cruz.
The Santa Cruz Future Salon hosts Patrick McKercher on "Flying through
Human Knowledge"

Patrick McKercher, UCSC Lecturer and Project Manager of the "K-Web",
will peer into the digital future of education. The K-Web is a
powerful, interactive and intuitive exploratory open source omnipedia
— a learning and teaching tool fostering multiple intelligences and
complex thinking in more systemic ways; it allows understanding
knowledge in context, generating new ideas, and exploring a universe
of data to discover how seemingly unrelated people, events and ideas
are connected across time and space. Fans of author – historian James
Burke will recognize many of these people, events, and ideas.
