Abstract
[Copenhagen, 1996, and my second TV interview. Tor Nørretranders is a Danish science journalist and intellectual who is extremely well-known in Denmark. Only one of his many books, the Danish best-seller Mark Verden, on information theory and consciousness, is available in English, as The User Illusion. This interview was part of Tor’s fabulous Mindship institute, an entire summer of intense dialogue between artists and scientists, held in spectacular abandoned waterfront Navy buildings, including a boiler factory (kettle smithy) and a submarine assembly hall.]
