Dr. Michael Chorost's first book, Rebuilt, was a memoir of getting a cochlear implant. It won the PEN/USA Award for Creative Nonfiction in 2006 and was applauded by the Los Angeles Times as "the first cyborg memoir." His second book, World Wide Mind, examines technologies for studying conscious experience and suggests how they could be used to communicate emotions collectively in a nascent World Wide Mind.
Dr. Chorost has written for Wired, New Scientist, Technology Review, and Astronomy Now, and lectured in France, Italy, and Russia last year. He lives in Washington, D.C with his wife and their two cats.
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
