We'll make sure to get high-quality recordings.
In the meantime, the FHI's youtube channel (http://www.youtube.com/user/FHIOxford/videos) may be of interest (talks from Tegmark, Bostrom, Armstrong, Sandberg, Yudkowsky, Omohundro, plus a recent animation of Bostrom's "Fable of the Dragon Tyrant").
We submitted our first grant application in January to the European Research Council – an ambitious project to create “A New Science of Existential Risk” that, if successful, would provide enough funding for CSER’s first research programme - a sizeable programme that will run for five years. We’ve been successful in the first and second rounds, and we will hear a final round decision at the end of the year.
How'd it go?
Unfortunately it got to a very late stage but was not funded. While reviewers ranked it very highly, it was always a long shot - we were asking for a lot of money for what is not a "traditional" academic discipline. However, we think that there are several foundations that might be inclined to support the type of research programme proposed - we aim to submit proposals to these early this year.
(Note: we had the same result with an Arts and Humanities Research Counciul grant submitted this fall - highly-ranked but ultimately unsuccessful. Also should be good material for further applications).
