Metamorphoses Curated by Claire Chase Soundbox
METAMORPHOSES CURATED BY CLAIRE CHASE SOUNDBOX 1 “Each of the pieces on this program explores, in different ways, the idea of metamorphosis, transformation, transfiguration—the ways that we take on new forms and ultimately transcend what we were before.” —Claire Chase 2 Esa-Pekka Salonen SAN FRANCISCO SYMPHONY MUSIC DIRECTOR San Francisco Symphony Music Director Esa-Pekka Salonen has, through his many high-profile conducting roles and work as a leading composer, shaped a unique vision for the present and future of the contemporary symphony orchestra.

The Age of Living Machines
THE AGE OF LIVING MACHINES HOW BIOLOGY WILL BUILD THE NEXT TECHNOLOGY REVOLUTION SUSAN HOCKFIELD W. W. NORTON & COMPANY Independent Publishers Since 1923 New York | London TO TOM AND ELIZABETH, FOR THEIR CONSTANT PATIENCE, WISDOM, AND LOVE. CONTENTS Prologue 1 WHERE THE FUTURE COMES FROM 2 CAN BIOLOGY BUILD A BETTER BATTERY? 3 WATER, WATER EVERYWHERE 4 CANCER-FIGHTING NANOPARTICLES 5 AMPLIFYING THE BRAIN 6 FEEDING THE WORLD 7 CHEATING MALTHUS, ONCE AGAIN: Making Convergence Happen Faster Acknowledgments Notes Index PROLOGUE For the last couple of decades, as a dean and then provost at Yale, and then as president and now president emerita of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), I’ve had the privilege of looking over the scientific horizon, and what I’ve seen is breathtaking. Ingenious and powerful biologically based tools are coming our way: viruses that can self-assemble into batteries, proteins that can clean water, nanoparticles that can detect and knock out cancer, prosthetic limbs that can read minds, computer systems that can increase crop yield. These new technologies may sound like science fiction, but they are not. Many of them are already well along in their development, and each of them has emerged from the same source: a revolutionary convergence of biology and engineering. This book tells the story of that convergence—of remarkable scientific discoveries that bring two largely divergent paths together and of the pathbreaking researchers who are using this convergence to invent tools and technologies that will transform how we will live in the coming century. We need new tools and technologies. -
