The Wizard of Courant

Jefferson Han has the future of computing in his hands. Like the wizard in the tale of the Sorcerer's Apprentice, Mr. Han has transformed the computer into your slave rather than you being enslaved by the physical environment that is based on the old typewriter technology. Jeff Han is a Research Scientist at NYU's Courant Institute and an article in Fast Company, a leading edge technology and web design publication, celebrates Han as the guru of future computing. Observe!



If you would like an alternative view of his presentation at the TED Conference in Monterey (Technology, Entertainment & Design), check out Remapping the Universe at Fast Company's website. Once there you can click on the article in Fast Company that describes the fabulous work of Mr. Han. His demo has become one of the all-time hits on YouTube.
