MIT, CALTECH TO DEVELOP VOTING TECHNOLOGY A team of political scientists, engineers, and design experts from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the California Institute of Technology will undertake a study of existing voting technology and create a plan to improve it. Caltech president David Baltimore said it is "embarrassing to America when technology fails and it puts democracy to such a test as we have seen in the last month," and his counterpart MIT president Charles Vest promised that, "to a large extent, the problem that the country has ... a technological solution." http://www.mercurycenter.com/svtech/news/breaking/merc/docs/010800.htm _______________________________________________ Nettime-bold mailing list [email protected] http://www.nettime.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nettime-bold
