Lot’s of interesting stuff on http://2012.startpagina.nl/. Must say that I still need to get used to the more excentric stuff like crop circles, and 2012 prophecies.
Thanks for this pointer as well, Eduard.

In the same email, Eduard Povel also pointed me to Jan Wicherink from [http://www.soulsofdistortion.nl Souls of Distortion]. An interesting man, resonating with “What the Bleep?”, science and spirituality, and even [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satriani Joe Satriani], one of my favourite guitarists as well. I’ll ping him for a jam session.
Computer scientists and visionaries today see a future in which Web 3.0 will help us engage in virtual battles with cancer cells, keep us physically independent as we age, and achieve a deeper emotional connection to things that matter most to us.
Dana Pavel believes that technology can make a profound difference in our lives if computers can understand more about where we are and how we are feeling.
“At some point you want to do something more than accomplish tasks through technologies and devices,” said the researcher who studies affective and context-aware computing at Nokia’s Helsinki Research Center.
Seems like Nokia is working hard on this. Again, resonates with [http://wiki.aardrock.com/Slimme_Spirituele_Software Martien’s Smart Spiritual Software].

Excellent Holistic Quantum Relativity Glossary aiming at providing meanings for those concepts, abstractions, thoughts, observations and views in Spirituality which converge with modern Science and vice-versa.
From DK Matal: The key findings of Quantum Physics point towards Holistic Quantum Relativity and the Holotropic State, especially:
*Dr David Bohm’s work about the universe being made up of an “interconnected unbroken wholeness”;
*The Non-Locality phenomena, ie, Bell’s Theorem; and
*The ‘Observer Effect’ implying that consciousness underlies all reality.
Points 1, 2 and 3—taken together—have striking parallels with the timeless spiritual concepts that all reality is the manifestation of an Infinite Singularity—Creative Principle—which we may choose to name Self-Designing Source, Supra-Universal Consciousness, Divine Principle or God. This demonstrates that Quantum Physics is moving the boundaries of our thinking towards the Holotropic State. Holotropic means “moving toward wholeness.” [Origin: Greek “Holos” = whole and “Trepein” = moving in the direction of]
