Here is my #Introduction, with hashtags. I’m an #author and essayist, part of, and hopeful about, the #TwitterMigration.
I write about #science and #technology and their cultural effects. My books include #Chaos, The #Information, and #TimeTravel, as well as biographies of Richard #Feynman and Isaac #Newton.
@JamesGleick Nice to be able to follow you here, James.
The Information is truly a masterpiece. I went into it understanding most of the nuts-and-bolts theory via electrical engineering, but seeing it all presented in a comprehensive, history-spanning framework really changed the way I think.
The discussion of the error-correction inherent to African talking drums absolutely blew my mind.
