Sunny talks with Prof. Christian Mayr from the Technical University of Dresden, who worked on SpiNNaker with Steve Furber for many years. He is taking that project into the future with SpiNNaker 2—which is mostly built—SpiNNaker 3, which is his next design project, and the startup SpiNNcloud. Discussion follows with Giulia and Ralph.
