Stephen Wolfram

Etienne Bernard

"Combinators have inspired ideas about computation ever since they were first invented in 1920, and in this innovative book, Stephen Wolfram provides a modern view of combinators and their significance. Informed by his work on the computational universe of possible programs and on computational language design, Wolfram explains new and existing ideas about combinators with unique clarity and stunning visualizations, as well as provides insights on their historical connections and the curious story of Moses Schönfinkel, inventor of combinators. Though invented well before Turing machines, combinators have often been viewed as an inaccessibly abstract approach to computation. This book brings them to life as never before in a thought-provoking and broadly accessible exposition of interest across mathematics and computer science, as well as to those concerned with the foundations of formal and computational thinking, and with the history of ideas"--

Présentation de l'oeuvre du sculpteur Wilfrid Almendra, qui explore l'esthétique influencée par l'architecture moderniste et les images de la prospérité américaine de l'après-guerre (Villa América)... Ses installations, ses sculptures interrogent le devenir pavillonnaire de l'utopie moderniste (séries Killed in action et Basement, New Babylon, 2009, ...)
