This new seminar series aims at deep and substantial communication across the silos that characterize the modern fixation on narrow expertise. The seminar is part of a larger strategy aimed at recreating and updating the Bell Labs model at WSU and the linked scientists and thinkers who are part of the new Complexity, Data and Learning (CDLG) group and the iSciMath project.
On this page we merely list the titles of the talks: for more information, including requests to be added to the email list and the iSciMath discourse instance, email me at vixie@speakeasy.net.
Michael M. Forbes and I are coleading the seminar this semester. (Bala Krishnamoorthy, the lead in the above projects is on sabbatical.)
