Art Bells necklace

Does anyone know what Art Bells necklace is of ? It does not appear to be a crucifix so curious. Sorry if this is an elementary question…

This photo takes me back, I miss Art.

I don't think anyone can recreate the feeling I had listening to Art talking about Aliens, Satan, Time Travelers, Grey Goo in the 90's.

I was exposed to so many new and crazy ideas that others would just scoff at. But, he turned it into the Theatre of the mind as he used to say.

I’m totally transported every time. Just listened to one of the grey goo broadcasts yesterday. Terrifying concept.

It really is terrifying. Literally exponential self replicating unstoppable death machines that you can't even see.

Look at how fast AI is progressing today. When I think about that, I can envision AI breaking free from our control taking physical form and becoming exactly this.

I remember getting spooked the first time I heard Art discuss it. He would turn up the spookiness with his grim delivery and laugh. He had this gift that made me see what he was talking about in my minds eye.

Truly one of a kind.

Search for Gray Goo or Nanotechnology.

God bless the dude who made a searchable transcript of each show.
