Hi and thanks, reading and writing on the run -<br>
<br>
Because we're on the road & traveling light (Providence RI to Atlanta Ga<br>
to Victoria BC and back), the books I'm reading (or trying to read) have<br>
had to have a real resonance -<br>
<br>
Red Pine's translation of The Heart Sutra<br>
Sibley's West Birds of course<br>
The Blue Annals, George Roerich trans., 2 volumes (classical Tibetan<br>
history)<br>
Recursiveness, Eilenberg and Elgot (category theory applied to recursion,<br>
incredibly difficult for me)<br>
Synthetic Philosophy of Contemporary Mathematics, Fernando Zalamea<br>
The Portable Hakluyt's Voyages<br>
International Radio Operator's Handbook, 1924<br>
and trying to get something out of three volumes in the Demystified series<br>
- Quantum Mechanics Demystified, String Theory Demystified, Quantum Field<br>
Theory demystified<br>
Just finished an amazing book, Lydia Zinovieva-Annibal, The Tragic<br>
Menagerie, which I highly recommend!<br>
<br>
We have a couple of thousand books, keep trading them in for others<br>
because of lack of space. Several core subjects for me - Buddhist<br>
philosophy (classical, Tibetan, Nagarjuna, etc.), cosmology and physics,<br>
non-western language grammars, mathematics, digital music production,<br>
guqin and shakuhachi texts, philosophy of media, deconstruction, early<br>
geographies.<br>
<br>
On the road I tend to stare at pages a lot -<br>
<br>
- Alan (just finished giving a talk at University of Victoria, Digital<br>
Humanities Summer Institute, on gamespace/edgespace/blankspace; now two<br>
more short presentations for the Electronic Literature Organization<br>
Conference connected to DHSI as well)<br>
