Daniel Hillis, Joi Ito, David Kaiser, Azra Raza, Jaan Tallin, Max Tegmark, Craig Venter, Frank Wilczek Dear xxxx With the end of summer, I am getting to work on the proposed volume in which I am inviting a stellar group of thinkers to help Norbert Wiener update his 1950 book THE HUMAN USE OF HUMAN BEINGS for the year 2016. (Tentative book title: "What Was A Human - A Meta￾Book"). Date: 3pm Friday Afternoon, September 10th through dinner Saturday evening, September llth Place: Eastover Farm EFTA_R1_00576146 EFTA02044506 The intent here is create a coherent and useful book that presents a variety of ideas and perspective without overlap and duplication. To do this (1) I would like each of you to send a paragraph (a very informal "abstract") on what you want to write about; and (b) I want to kick things off with a discussion of what the book should cover. For this I need help. So am hosting a gathering at Eastover Farm in n0 miles from NYC; 150 miles from Cambridge) on Friday-Saturday September 10th & Ilth. If you can make it's important to first re-read Wiener's book and have an idea for your topic that we can put on the table for discussion. Other than the abstract, no papers or formal presentations. I will pick up hotel and transportation expenses.
