课程介绍：

一数学家，一个艺术家和一个音乐家都有一个什么共通点？ 你对禅宗理论，数学，分形，逻辑，悖论，无穷，艺术，语言，计算机科学，物理，音乐，智力，意识和统一理论感兴趣吗？ 接下来我将深入分析普利策奖获得者道格拉斯霍夫斯塔特的获奖图书：哥德尔，埃舍尔，巴赫。通过这本书的启发，我们可以在本次讲座做一些疯狂的猜想，你需要阅读大部分的书籍，因为课程的内容主要是鼓励我们的阅读和课堂讨论。这里，我极力推荐大家去都买这本书，把你的思想解放到一个更高的层次。

What do one mathematician, one artist, and one musician all have in common? Are you interested in zen Buddhism, math, fractals, logic, paradoxes, infinities, art, language, computer science, physics, music, intelligence, consciousness and unified theories? Get ready to chase me down a rabbit hole into Douglas Hofstadter’s Pulitzer Prize winning book Gödel, Escher, Bach. Lectures will be a place for crazy ideas to bounce around as we try to pace our way through this enlightening tome. You will be responsible for most of the reading as lectures will consist primarily of motivating the material and encouraging discussion. I advise everyone seriously interested to buy the book, grab on and get ready for a mind-expanding voyage into higher dimensions of recursive thinking.

(Godel，Escher，Bach：An Eternal Golden Braid)：

这是一本空前的奇书，也是一本杰出的科学普及名著，它以精心设计的巧妙笔法深入浅出地介绍了数理逻辑、可计算理论、人工智能等学科领域中的许多艰深理论，轻松、幽默、流畅的文字隐藏着大量的潜台词，它们前后照应、互相联系，交织成一个复杂、无形的网络，读者看不见它，但可以嗅出它的气味，并觉察到这是作者有意喷洒的。作者希望借此引起读者的兴趣，从而在反复玩味中体会出那些潜台词来，真正触及本书的精华。
