DESCRIPTION:High-intensity structured light could one day power the world
 —provided we figure out laser fusion (an enormous if!) using metasurface
 s patterned with tiny\, extremely precise nanostructures. Meanwhile\, nonl
 inear structured photonics might unravel the very mystery of life\, assumi
 ng photons can learn how to spontaneously self-organize into artificial li
 ving creatures. Both goals are equally absurd and irresistible. This Collo
 quium explores these grand ambitions\, where the only certainty is that th
 e journey ahead will be nonlinear\, intense\, and hopefully illuminating.
