When I was a graduate student, people were reducing everything that people thought about all representations of the world to something like, language, or propositions. Okay, I’m going to share a screen and I want to, before I show pictures, I just want to say a bit, without a picture, of how I got into this field at all. And so, “Zoom” does enable that kind of interaction in one class. Kazakhstan, China, Korea, Japan, just everywhere. I should say that you’re more punctual than my students, but my students are far more geographically dispersed.

The talk will be like pieces of hors d’oeuvres, so a bit disjointed, but they’re meant to set up talking points so that you can ask questions, or discuss things. And I’m trying to tell it through visuals not in the book. I will have to write, of course.īarbara Tversky: So, thank you for inviting me. Everybody, I’m sure, has at least read… Actually, in the chat, while Barbara does her intro, can you please write if you’ve read the book? Or if you’re currently reading it? It would be really nice to have a bit of a (INDISTINCT). You know, for us to be able to meet like this, is incredible. The world is such an interesting place now. And thank you, Barbara, for making it possible.įrode Hegland: Yeah, I mean. Okay, Barbara…īen Shneiderman: Thank you, Frode, for bringing this illustrious group together. Where are you in the world? Lorenzo is muted. I’m from Southampton.īrandel Zachernuk: Sunnyvale, California.įrode Hegland: And I think, finally, my list keeps moving about here, so I don’t want to waste too much time. He must be muted. Chris Gutteridge, you’re in Southampton, right?Ĭhris Gutteridge: Yep of mayflower fame for the Americans.įrode Hegland: Mark Anderson? Southampton? David (INDISTINCT)? You’re muted, David (INDISTINCT). Dave De Roure?ĭavid De Roure: I just changed my background to reveal my location of Oxford.įrode Hegland: Ah, yes. Adam, you are in (INDISTINCT), right?įrode Hegland: Oh, Stockholm. Brendan?įrode Hegland: Oh, I didn’t know that. I’m in Wiltshire, in the UK.įrode Hegland: Sounds so fancy when you say it.

Where are you, David?ĭavid Millard: Hi, Frode. New York, right?įrode Hegland: Dave Millard, somewhere down south in the UK. I’m in Bethesda, Maryland.įrode Hegland: Maryland, wonderful. Randomly go through, and say where everyone is. Why don’t we do one of the nice things we sometimes do before Barbara properly starts? There maybe one or two more people. I don’t think there’s that many more people. And so, I think this is a good time to start. That’s because some people are walking two or three.įrode Hegland: And right there, with the entry of Ben Schneiderman, my arbitrary screen has filled up on the side here. So, the young people, the new movements, they’re in Brooklyn.Īlan Laidlaw: It’s easier to have a dog in Brooklyn for sure.īarbara Tversky: You know, there are times when I walk out at night, and there are more dogs than people in Manhattan. But I was in Chelsea in 2019.īarbara Tversky: Well, Brooklyn is the hip place to be now. Once we get through all the safety, I’d love to buy you a coffee. I’m teaching by “Zoom.” (INDISTINCT) has a very new meaning in these days.Īlan Laidlaw: Oh, that’s great. You’re around Columbia, is that correct?īarbara Tversky: Yeah I am affiliated with Teachers College at Columbia. I would agree with you, and you’re getting thumbs up from Alan who is just up the road from you.Īlan Laidlaw: Yes. A good friend used to call it, “The ultimate adult playground.”įrode Hegland: Yes. This is the only time in New York where it doesn’t smell, right? I say that lovingly…īarbara Tversky: It’s always a special time. In Manhattan, Greenwich Village.įrode Hegland: Well, it’s a really special time in the village. East Coast? West Coast?īarbara Tversky: I am in New York. But Barbara, before we properly start, you’re, let me guess. I have no idea what that means in this context, but whatever. So, Barbara, who needs no introduction, we’ll get an introduction. So, yeah.įrode Hegland: I should get a message if someone joins, so I’ll leave it on the side. Mark Anderson: Frode, would it help… Is the other one open? I mean, if you want I can duck off and just go check and see if anyone’s… Actually most of the faces are all here. I decided these monthly ones should be slightly better protected. I just hope no one goes to our normal “Zoom” weekly meetings, because that’s a different link. I’m going to go all kinds of focus mode now, in case.
