    Luis gives me a feeling of optimism and joy in the way that
    he goes about his work. I am a visual artist and see Luis’
    computer inquiries as artistic play as much as work.

    This recaptcha is better than most fortune cookies that I’ve

Luis von Ahn on PBS Nova scienceNow

Events, Research

The PBS show Nova scienceNow will have a feature on Luis von Ahn. The show will air for the first time tonight (9pm on WQED here in Pittsburgh). A preview of the show, along with links to audio Q&A with Luis can be accessed here.

Just in case you can’t wait until tonight episode airs, check out Luis’ great 10-minute lecture on Human Computation, which he gave at a CCC event at the Library of Congress last month. This lecture made it to #53 Top Favorited Science and Technology video on YouTube, helping lift the CRA/CCC YouTube channel to the #40 most viewed in the non-profit category.
