Domains of Interest

The following list of domains is still very broad and even if I’m already inclined for just a few, I think my mindset, at least for now, runs loose in all of them. Nonetheless, a major frame connects and oversees all domains – Information Architecture.

> Artificial Intelligence (genetic algorithms, neural networks)
> Artificial Life
> Cyber Biology
> Genetics (DNA, cell behaviour)
> Virology (Biological Viruses VS Computer Viruses)
> Epidemiology
> Complex Networks
> Cognitive Science
> Pattern Recognition
> Game Theory
> Strategy
> Emergent Systems (bottom-up organization)
> Self-organizing Systems

Recently Acquired Books:

> Linked: How Everything Is Connected to Everything Else and What It Means for Business, Science and Everyday Life (see detail)
> Six Degrees: The Science of a Connected Age (see detail)
> Interface Culture : How New Technology Transforms the Way We Create and Communicate (see detail)
> The Birth of the Mind: How a Tiny Number of Genes Creates the Complexities of Human Thought (see detail)
