ertzel_Hanigan_Bach_Epstein_Proposal_2014.pdf Hi Jeffrey, After a bunch of discussion and collaboration, here is a proposal from myself, Cosmo and Joscha, describing some collaborative research work we would love to do over the next 18 months. The basic idea is to "start simple" (while building on so

Due partly to Joscha's influence, this is more science-oriented and less engineering-oriented than my prior proposals to you, but neverthele
