Described by Fortune magazine as an “intellectual hedonist” with a “hummingbird mind,” Richard Saul Wurman, architect, author of over 80 books and founder of the TED, TEDMED and the e.g. conferences is coming to USC to have a conversation with students. Wurman’s latest project, the WWW.WWW conference, is currently gathering some of the world’s greatest minds, such as Frank Gehry, Arianna Huffington, Julie Taymor and Steve Wozniak, to talk about the complexity of emerging patterns on our planet in improvised conversations and intellectual jazz. By utilizing the simple idea of one prompt and two individuals, WWW.WWW explores the lost art of conversing to uncover the valuable commodity of ideas and truths.
