Microsoft Research has put my September 10th reading at Redmond online. You can download the video, just the audio, or the slides, in several different formats.

Given that Microsoft Research Cambridge is where I started the project, it was really nice to be able to speak at the mothership. It's easy to either make fun of Microsoft as a gigantic dinosaur, or fear them for their stranglehold on PCs, but Microsoft Research was a fabulous place to think, and I'll forever be grateful to them for giving me the chance to spend a sabbatical there.
