And the chip I'm going to show you a video that the silicon retina put out of its output when it was looking at Kareem Zaghloul, who's the student who designed this chip.

And then it also extracts movement.

The retina chip that we designed sits behind this lens here.

The retina chip extracts four different kinds of information.

But right now, you pretty much have to take silicon, put it in an oven at 1600 degrees Fahrenheit for 17 hours, to make the cells.

I gave this little slide show at a place called the Silicon Valley and I did all right.

Silicon

Here's an interesting one for the IT world bio silicon. This is a diatom, which is made of silicates.

Not silicon.

Silicon Valley Everywhere

So now the neurons are represented by little nodes or circuits on the chip, and the connections among the neurons are represented, actually modeled by transistors.

What you notice here is that these snapshots taken from the output of the retina chip are very sparse, right?

It is made out of silicon.

They're also silicon.

These are diatoms, single celled phytoplankton with skeletons of silicon ...

Latin'silex '

There's diatoms made out of SIO2, and they're magnetotactic bacteria that make small, single domain magnets used for navigation.

First of all, it's going to be built up, we're going to build the stuff out of silicon.

Silicon Valley or Demand Mountain?

And they figured out all the different cells, and they figured out the network, and we just took that network and we used it as the blueprint for the design of a silicon chip.

Silicon Valley did. And that's why they say that Silicon Valley has been powered by ICs.

In another hybrid discipline, molecular computing, organic or artificial enzymes are programmed to conduct complex calculations faster than silicon chips. The field could provide an avenue, alongside 3D silicon chips, for maintaining or even accelerating the pace of Moore s Law, which states that the number of transistors on the integrated circuits used by computers doubles every two years.

And so silicon, which we make right now it's part of our carcinogenic problem in the manufacture of our chips this is a bio mineralization process that's now being mimicked.

So, what we call this is a silicon cottage industry.

And also these very life like, intrinsically painted silicone legs.

And this is just a silicon piece of skin.

We used a red, very high temperature silicon to do that.

You guys have things here in Silicon Valley like stock options.

And right here guys, Silicon Valley, I mean how many people have an iPhone on them right now?

Same with diatoms, which are shown right here, which are glasseous structures.

The first set of people in Silicon Valley got very, very rich.

This is certainly connected to California and Silicon Valley.

Free is really, you know, the gift of Silicon Valley to the world.

Bismuth silicate (BSO), Bismuth germanite (BGO) and their solid solutions have created a great deal of interest in the forms of bulk crystals and epitaxial films for opto and acousto electronic applications in integrated devices.

And then the fruit of the world for Silicon Valley today.

Hollywood gathers around power tables, and the Valley gathers around power tables.

This is at UC Santa Barbara. Look at these diatoms.

I did enjoy Bono's comment linking Haight Ashbury to Silicon Valley.
