Dear xxx„
Danny Kahneman and Anne Treisman will be our houseguests at Eastover Farm in Bethlehem, CT the Friday
September 6- Saturday, Septmeber 7th, and I want to plan something entertaining and interesting.
I have in mind a rehearsal, or dry run, for a possible annual event which would be a weekend that focuses on
state of art of what the social sciences have to tell us about human nature in the past year or two. For want of
something more serious, it's "THE HEAD CONFERENCE" or "HEADCON". We would host a couple of
dinners Fri and Sat nights, and on Saturday, a day of hanging out at the Farm. During those periods, there
would be a series of talks by the invited guests. EDGE would pick up hotel room charges and transportation
expenses.
Some background: In 1992, when the physicist George Smoot announced his findings from the COBE satellite
regarding cosmic background radiation and the beginning of time, I left a message on the voicemail of the late,
great Sidney Coleman of Harvard : "Sidney, I hear there's something new in the Universe. What is it?. And
what's in it for me?" The message went viral after Sidney posted it on the electronic bulletin board of the
physics community.
My question was inspired by an annual event in Italy for leading physicists where Sidney gave the keynote talk.
The topic of his lecture was essentially "What's new in the Universe?" Sidney would detail the advances and
developments in the past year or two across many areas of physics.
In this case, I would be asking you, and the other guests, to give a half hour talk responding to a similar
question:
"What's new in your field of social science in the last year or two, and why should I care? Why do I want or
need to know about it and how does it change my view of human nature'?
I would ask you to focus broadly and address the major developments in your entire field (including but not at
all limited to your own research agenda). It would have to be new, fresh, and original: an up-to-date field report
on your area of social science. This talk should be, to the extent possible, conversational, and not a canned
Power-Point or slide-driven conference talk. We would videotape the entire event and present the videos and
texts as an EDGE Special Event.
For this dry run, on September 6 & 7, we're focusing on one day, replicating the usual Edge Events at Eastover
Farm. See:http://www.edge.org/events/eastover-farm-meetings
To date, the following are confirmed. Awaiting word from a number of others:
