With the Celtics and Lakers back at it again in the NBA finals, the Invention Pub is featuring rivalries in the invention world. Here’s a look at what you can expect to see at the Pub in the near future.

Nicola Tesla: Tesla’s War of Currents with Edison was probably one of the most notorious rivalries in inventing history. Learn about how this battle started and played out.

Ideating: Not so much a rivalry, but a look at how inventors come up with great ideas in the first place. This is of course following my progress to break into the inventing world.

Bill Joy: This co-founder of Sun Microsystems warns of the potential disasters that could occur if Ray Kurzweil’s vision of future technology gets out of hand.
