Among the newly confirmed participants for IF 2007 in September, Ray Bradbury will appear in a rather unusual way. He will be beamed in by Dallas-based Teleportec, which has developed a technology that will permit the author of the Martian Chronicles and Fahrenheit 451 to appear live and in three virtual dimensions, able to make eye-to-eye contact and to interact with other ideaFestival participants.
Think hologram. Or something else.
