It's really interesting to see how the content of many of your personal posts here fit together in the presentation form. I wish though, that the questions asked during the presentation could have been subtitled in to the video, as some of them were unintelligible. I was able to get the gist of the questions from your responses to them, but it would still be nice to see the questions asked.

I have to say, I started laughing when you got to the part about sex and how the exchange of ideas can result in pleasure and how that might well be considered sex too, especially in a possible future where mind to mind interfacing might be possible. This is metaphorically spoken of among writers and in writing programs at universities as well; in the creative arts in general, pleasure is the ultimate goal though I should say that "pleasure" is defined differently than it is in common usage in that it generally means the evocation of strong emotions.
