Event Details

BAASICS.2: The Future brings together Bay Area artists, inventors, futurists, researchers, and musicians whose projects and musings provide us with some sense of what may lie just around the proverbial corner. Joe Betts-Lacroix, a scientist, inventor, and entrepreneur, will discuss the importance of “curing” aging. Former physicist and tech journalist Aaron Saenz will discuss good robots, bad robots, and prospects for synthetic life. Grab your jet pack and join BAASICS co-founders and producers, Selene Foster and Christopher Reiger, for a provocative and entertaining evening of time travel.

Following the ODC Theater program, a reception will be held at Root Division. Join them for drinks, good conversation, networking, and an opportunity to win some fantastic prizes from our generous sponsors.
