series of dinners—an ongoing seminar about media, communications, art, music, and philosophy that focused on Cage’s interest in the ideas of Wiener, Claude Shannon, and Marshall McLuhan, all of whom had currency in the New York art circles in which I was then moving. In particular, Cage had picked up on McLuhan’

and an external professor at the Santa Fe Institute. He is the author of Programming the Universe: A Quantum Computer Scientist Takes on the Cosmos.
