Eastern Economy - There is news from Silicon Valley every day. Many of our technologies come from "Think Tanks" of the western world. But there is also innovation and technological progress in the East. Whether it's space travel in Russia or the robotics pioneers of Japan, they're all trying to gain an innovative competitive edge. Follow us on a journey through the economic east. Eastern Economy Stars: Brandon Lisy, Ashlee Vance Genre: Documentary Russia - 0:00 For the past five years, Russia’s been building walls around its web and packing it with tech oligarchs, startup cities, face-finding algorithms, hacker hunters, and, of course, a few bears. Ashlee Vance travels to Mother Russia to see how they do tech. Israel - 20:42 Ashlee Vance explores how Israel has evolved into a tech giant borne out of defense. He travels across this Startup Nation and gets up close with the Iron Dome, a Star Trek-inspired spectrometer, and a mini space laboratory. Japan - 42:36 Ashlee Vance heads to Japan to find people who are trying to wake the country up from its technological slumber. His journey goes from Tokyo to Kyoto and Osaka. Along the way, he meets with Japan’s top roboticists making lifelike androids. He heads to Hitachi’s vaunted research labs to see the machines – robot helpers and autonomous vehicles - that the company thinks will take care of Japan’s senior citizens in the years to come. And he hangs out with a host of eccentric characters from robotics hobbyists to the world’s most prolific inventor–an 88-year-old man who claims to have invented both the floppy disk and the most stimulating sex potion known to man.
