One of the problems we've had is that the ICT curriculum in the past has been written for a subject that is changing all the time. I think that what we should have is computer science in the future - and how it fits in to the curriculum is something we need to be talking to scientists to experts in coding and to young people about.

I shopped at J. Crew in high school I studied computer science. I was a nerd-nerd now I'm a music-nerd.

People think that computer science is the art of geniuses but the actual reality is the opposite just many people doing things that build on eachother like a wall of mini stones.

I decry the current tendency to seek patents on algorithms. There are better ways to earn a living than to prevent other people from making use of one's contributions to computer science.

The rise of Google the rise of Facebook the rise of Apple I think are proof that there is a place for computer science as something that solves problems that people face every day.

I think computer science by and large is still stuck in the Modern age.

I've always felt that the human-centered approach to computer science leads to more interesting more exotic more wild and more heroic adventures than the machine-supremacy approach where information is the highest goal.

We're losing track of the vastness of the potential for computer science. We really have to revive the beautiful intellectual joy of it as opposed to the business potential.

When people think about computer science they imagine people with pocket protectors and thick glasses who code all night.

It should be mandatory that you understand computer science.

It's interesting now that basically a CG set is the same cost as a real set. So like if you're going to build a CG house in the suburbs it costs you $200 000. And if you were going to build it in a computer it'll cost you $200 000. It's the same... the relationship is exactly the same.

At this moment I do not have a personal relationship with a computer.

Technology is such a broad kind of term it really applies to so many things from the electric light to running cars on oil. All of these different things can be called technology. I have kind of a love-hate relationship with it as I expect most people do. With the computer I spend so many hours sitting in front of a computer.

This revolution the information revoultion is a revolution of free energy as well but of another kind: free intellectual energy. It's very crude today yet our Macintosh computer takes less power than a 100-watt bulb to run it and it can save you hours a day. What will it be able to do ten or 20 years from now or 50 years from now?

I should prefer to have a politician who regularly went to a massage parlour than one who promised a laptop computer for every teacher.

The poetry and transgression that was so much of surrealism's anarchic force has been recruited into mainstream culture. It has been made commonplace by television and magazine merchandising by computer games and Internet visuals by film and MTV by the fashion shoot.

The cloning of humans is on most of the lists of things to worry about from Science along with behaviour control genetic engineering transplanted heads computer poetry and the unrestrained growth of plastic flowers.

Autism is a neurological disorder. It's not caused by bad parenting. It's caused by you know abnormal development in the brain. The emotional circuits in the brain are abnormal. And there also are differences in the white matter which is the brain's computer cables that hook up the different brain departments.

The protean nature of the computer is such that it can act like a machine or like a language to be shaped and exploited.

I am severely distracted these days. It's hard to sit in front of the computer uploading bad music for hours when you have a wonderful boyfriend who treats you like a Goddess.

There's a lot of music that sounds like it's literally computer-generated totally divorced from a guy sitting down at an instrument.

I did that for 40 years or more. I never had any writer's block. I got up in the morning sat down at the typewriter - now computer - lit up a cigarette.

Your computer needn't be the first thing your see in the morning and the last thing you see at night.

I've just finished my 20th book this past year and I'm working on my 21st book about the Middle East right now that I'll finish this year. And I get up early in the morning and when I get tired of the computer and tired of doing research I walk 20 steps out to my woodshop and I either build furniture or paint paintings. I'm an artist too.
