About a week ago on this blog I mentioned that I’d just read an amazing book called “The Metamorphosis of Prime Intellect” (aka MOPI). Today on the show I’m very excited to have the author of that book, Roger Williams. Roger talks to me from his home in New Orleans about the genesis of the book, why it has never been published, the sequel he’s writing, his other fiction, the Singularity, and what life is like in New Orleans 12 months after Hurricane Katrina.

Listen to my interview with Ray Kurzweil from late 2005
Read up on Eliezer Yudkowsky who you’ll hear Roger mention a few times
Great show Cam, really good interview. Roger is a really interesting guy. I had no idea things were still so bad in New Orleans. Cheers, Nathan.
Wow!
What a fantastic read!
It reads like a movie script, a story I’d love to see on screen. Looking forward to reading more of Roger’s writings.
It was heartbreaking to hear a firsthand account of life in New Orleans today, because we aren’t hearing much through the media anymore, so I was hoping things had improved far more.
That is a good read cam.
I’m recommending it to allot of people. thank for making me aware of it.
