This talk by event sponsor Smart Communications shows how the “Why Not” attitude can be used to develop simple and ingenious solutions to everyday challenges and threats. Delivered by Public Affairs Head Ramon Isberto, it talks about how Smart has been helping communities use science in preparing for storms and their aftermath through the use of batingaw (early warning devices fashioned out of recycled acetylene tanks) and rain gauges. Citing that the Philippines has the highest number of Category 5 typhoons in the world, Mon underscores the importance of disaster-preparedness in local communities.
In an engaging talk about the mind’s possibilities, Dr. Greg Tangonan shares recent studies and experiments involving mind mapping, mind control, “out of body experiences” in the virtual world, and other mind-body experiments. He cites how this decade of the New Millennium has been called “The decade of the mind initiative,” spurring such creations as a mind-controlled video game. In trying to understand the human brain, Dr. Tangonan suggests that it might be possible to measure emotions and even the effects of “faith healing.”
