What are your thoughts on the concept of living a very long life?

Look if we could conquer our physical limitations and thus achieve immortality, this would fundamentally change everything. The philosophy, lifestyle, attitude to consumption and the natural world. We would be like the elves of fantasy novels, we could only be destroyed but we wouldn’t be able to die a natural death.

You get to build your perfect space for reading and writing. What’s it like?

I don’t know if you can link Kindle to a projector. That would be cool. I also require many shelves as I buy books every month with my spare income. Unfortunately I keep a lot of my books in my bedroom. I would like a totally separate library, with a table, computer etc. But I can’t afford that.
