So here's a preview of a new EDGE piece =hich includes a 47-minute video which is worth every minute of your =ery valuable time. Hope you enjoy it. Comments for a Reality Club =iscussion are welcome. =ttp://www.edge.org/conversation/constructor-theory In addition, we're trying something new for this edition - using an =rtist's representational drawing rather than the usual photo. We're =ivided on it - some of us like it. Some don't. I would appreciate any =eedback you may have.
