Gershenfeld on a New Digital Reality

Interesting Edge conversation with Neil Gershenfeld of MIT.  We connected with him there a number of times in the early days of remote manufacture.  That world is starting to mature.   " ... ...Today, you can send a design to a fab lab and you need ten different machines to turn the data into something. Twenty years from now, all of that will be in one machine that fits in your pocket. This is the sense in which it doesn't matter. You can do it today. How it works today isn't how it's going to work in the future but you don't need to wait twenty years for it. Anybody can make almost anything almost anywhere.  ... "
