About

Jennifer Baum Sevec identifies cross-cultural and interdisciplinary contributions to modern computing using items from the Library of Congress collections. Baum Sevec leverages the information theory of pioneering physicist John Archibald Wheeler, who proposed that the fundamental significance of existence--the "it from bit"--originates in the information-theoretic source of binary indications or bits. The observer-participant dynamic was an elemental part of Wheeler's theory which will figure into Baum Sevec's analysis.

Human-made No record of this work says a model made it. What this means.
