Hello (sorry, I will have to speak in English).

I am a big fan of NANO (3SAT, 18.30 German time, http://www.3sat.de/nano -- cordially recommended). I think it’s the best popular science program in the world (“Discovery” doesn’t stand a chance). It is watched all over Europe (I have been watching it in Israel). A couple of years ago they covered the “World Transhumanist Association”. I was wondering if we could somehow get them cover the Immortality Institute, as we are getting bigger, more productive, and better organized. Such exposure could be very helpful for the cause. Ihre meinung?

Hallo ilia

Danke fuer den Hinweis.
Neben dem Transhumanismus haben sie seinerzeit auch Kryonik besprochen. Insgesamt gab es in Deutschland Anno 2000/2001 eine Publicitywelle, (damals auch gefoerdert durch Telomere) die wieder etwas abgeklungen ist.

Momentan weiss ich nicht so recht was wir (ImmInst) den Reportern/Zuschauern zu bieten haben, ich wuerde da vor allem weiterleiten.
Wenn ein deutscher Kollege taetig werden will, bin ich (und bestimmt viele Andere) aber gern bereit zu helfen.

Grundsätzlich eine gute Idee! für später - zum Beispiel ab 2006.

I think just having the site mentioned in Nano’s “Die Tipps in Kurze” would already be great. A short interview with an ImmInst leader, explaining the movement’s goals, would be just excellent. Now that I come to think of it, Kulturzeit wouldn’t be a bad exposure either. That’s really what we have to offer: declare our conviction that life-extension/immortality is good and possible, and hope others will join.

Hi...

I have not hear about NANO in Spain. Do you know if it can be seen by internet in English or Spains language?

No it can't -its a German TV show.

You might find the forum next door more useful:

...well, Ilia, in thes forum, say it is watched all over Europe, so I wanted no know if it can be see in spain or by internet.

[ilia]

Well, I guess if you have an appropriate TV cable subscription or a satellite dish you can. I know it can be watched here in Israel, and also in Italy, and Czechia. I don’t think it is available via the Internet. But you might visit their website http://www.3sat.de/nano. It has a pretty nice search engine with a lot of resources on biology and life-extension. It is all in German. Actually I have picked up quite a lot of both German and science through it. Best, Ilia.

Holá

my last stay in Spain is long time ago, ..... but i will try it :
Busqué en la internet alamana por indicaciónes de una asunción de Nano en la televisión espanola, pero no encuentro nada.
Con todo: en las paginas de ses-astra.com están tablas y mapas, qué significan qué tu puedes recibir 3sat libre de todo gasto y analógico o digitalmente con una antena de satélite ajustado al satélite de Astra (19,2 grados de este). Pero esta televisación es en lengua alemana.

Ilia, I think this is a very good idea. Like all very good ideas, nearly all it needs is a dedicated person trying hard to make it real. If there were someone actually organizing this (i.e. contacting nano, doing whatever they say it takes, ect.), then I'd be happy to present my take on what imminst has to offer or rejuvenation medicine in general in any detail that nano can possibly want.
Since I'm not all that formally involved in the actual administration of the institute, I recommend that a similar statement be solicited from an imminst director (e.g. a certain German-speaking one) in addition.
I see no reason not to start now. Are you up for this?

[caliban]

I recommend that a similar statement be solicited from an imminst director (e.g. a certain German-speaking one) in addition.

Ja, yes, oui

The day people stop asking "Why don't you...?" and start asking "Do you mind if I do...?" my tea will taste so much sweeter.

[ilia]

I know, any initiative is punishable by its execution
But I think a German-speaking negotiator is better suited for this job.
Ilia.

[John Schloendorn]

Nope, it is rewarded by the opportunity of its execution. German TV producers, like TV producers in general, are very adept at English conversation.

[caliban]

Es war mir zu bloed diesen Thread staendigt diskutiert zu sehen, darum hab ich die Leute heute selbst angeschrieben und lasse Euch wissen, wenn was draus wird.
Nun hat die liebe Seele Ruh.

[ilia]

Great!
Because following John’s response and yours, I was going to write them myself (which I was in no authority to do).
Indeed, this gets discussed a little too much. But the hopeful result could make great PR for ImmInst, especially its European branches.
Best.

[John Schloendorn]

Good job everyone. Fingers crossed, this could be fun.

Ein deutscher Kryonaut erhielt vor ein paar Tagen Anfragen von 17:30 (SAT-1) und "Guten Abend RTL". Soweit ich verstanden haben waren die Leute sehr enttaeuscht als er Ihnen mitteilen musste, das er keine eingefrorenen Koepfe bei sich im Regal stehen hat.

Sehr geehrter Herr Sethe,

Ihren interessanten Vorschlag zum Thema "Unsterblichkeitsforschung" werden wir gerne in unserer Planungsrunde diskutieren und uns bei Bedarf wieder bei Ihnen melden. Bei der Fülle der hier eingehenden Themenvorschläge können wir allerdings leider nicht alle Vorschläge berücksichtigen.

Einen schönen Feiertag und viele Grüße nach Sheffield
