We celebrated the Whole Earth Catalog’s 50th Anniversary with many of its creators on October 13, 2018, at Fort Mason in San Francisco. The event was hosted by Stewart Brand, Ryan Phelan, Danica Remy and an amazing group of volunteers, including yours truly. In the evening, we all came together for a very special party, where we connected with many old and new friends, including Matisse Enzer, Adam and Phyllis Florin, Ahmed Kabil, David Lawrence, Jim McKee, Scoop Nisker, Tim Pozar, Judy and Mamie Rheingold, to name but a few.
The creative minds in attendance all had one thing in common: they gave access to tools and ideas to help people bring their dreams to life -- and change the world together. Many thanks to all the folks who organized and participated in this event! It was a wonderful way to honor a culture that helped change the world and that may inspire many others for years to come.

Forensics: The First 48
Back for the second year, this clover college workshop will offer a Forensics Frenzy. The first forty‐eight hours of an investigation are key in determining the answers to the Who? What? When? Where? How? Time is very valuable and so is the information that will be provided in this session. Youth will use their investigative and problemsolving skills to solve a mock crime scene. Several detective agencies will offer opportunities to learn the methods of observing, gathering and analyzing physical evidence to solve mysteries. This hands‐on session doesn’t stop there. Come take part in a virtual visit to a local morgue and discover the secrets of the underworld. If that’s not enough, have you ever wondered how long it takes for a body to decompose? Or maybe you’ve been interested in body composition and bone structure. Well, take a peek in our Forensics Anthropology corner. This session will offer these opportunities and so much more.

if it can be fused then it can be split
It's all under control, It's all under control, It's all under control, It's all under control
If it can be lost then it can be won, if it can be touched then it can be turned
All you need is........TIME
Students representing all six schools of the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston (UTHealth) attend the fourth and final session of the Interprofessional Team Training Workshop.
We celebrated the Whole Earth Catalog’s 50th Anniversary with many of its creators on October 13, 2018, at Fort Mason in San Francisco. The event was hosted by Stewart Brand, Ryan Phelan, Danica Remy and an amazing group of volunteers, including yours truly. At the event, we presented Whole Earth Flashbacks, a video history of this innovative culture, which I produced and edited with a wonderful group of 60 community contributors. Our half-hour video played all day long in their Gray Box multimedia theater.
In the evening, we played a shorter version of the Flashbacks video at the Cowell Theatre. I'm very grateful to all our core team on this project: Matisse Enzer, Phyllis Florin, Ahmed Kabil, David Lawrence, Jim McKee, and Susan Ryan, to name but a few.
The creative minds we featured in the video all had one thing in common: they gave access to tools and ideas to help people bring their dreams to life -- and change the world together. Many thanks to all the folks who organized and participated in this event! It was a wonderful way to honor a culture that helped change the world and that may inspire many others for years to come.

From ideation to evaluation to solution. When the thinking and decision process is made visual, even those not present for the discussion understand how decisions were made.

I gave D. a lip balm from my bathroom and N. had to have one too. Once I gave it to him I had him put it up on this shelf so he wouldn't get into it during the rest of the evening. About a half hour later I found him here, on a chair, happily putting on about a 1/2 inch layer of lip balm.
Our son Adam Florin gave a fascinating talk about generative music at Algorithmic Art Assembly, hosted by Gray Area Art + Technology. He started with a quick demo of Patter, his music composition software, then took us on an illuminating journey through the many people and ideas which inspired him to create his cool freeform generative sequencer.
Brian Eno, who coined the phrase “generative music”, recently likened it to gardening -- but the material practice is just as much rooted in centuries of formal aesthetics, predictive statistics and industrial automation. How can we negotiate the tension between organic and and the mechanical in the algorithmic arts?
Adam has created some amazing digital tools and art exhibits in that space. It was great to hear what he's learned in this fascinating field, exploring the intersection of human and machine creativity. And to top it off, he gave this talk on his birthday, which was the best present of all!
