In 1978 I entered Tohoku University into the Department of Electrical Engineering Faculty of Technology.

Developments in information technology and globalised media mean that the most powerful military in the history of the world can lose a war not on the battlefield of dust and blood but on the battlefield of world opinion.

Technology is permeating every single thing we do... And to the extent that we can better expose our young people to all the different ways that technology can be used not just for video games or toys we're planning for the future.

When dealing in the technology it becomes a question of whether you overuse something. I think that's worse than having something technologically available to you and not using it.

I think technology has changed America not any one organization. Technology is taking the power away from the few. There'll be a lot more choices and good people who are doing serious stuff will survive and there'll be a lot more voices and that is very healthy.

For me modern technology has ruined romance and movies - nobody can run to the airplane gate anymore.

Digital imaging has untied our hands with regards to technical limitations. We no longer have to be arbiters of technology we get to participate in the interpretation of technology into creative content.
