Hi Sonia,

OK, good to know that Bridget's needs seem to have been sorted out.

Those are some amazing connections still alive within the generative
systems community! How cool.

It's wonderful to hear you are still busy and receiving well-deserved
attention for a fantastic body of work.

All best wishes,

Pamela

Dear Pamela,
Thank you for the Information. I have already answered Bridget’s questions and
will leave it at that. For any other further inquiry, I believe that I included
the /New Foundations/ issue in the Sonia Sheridan Collection in the
Fondation-Langlois. I provided a vast collection to Langlois, as well as a large
collection of catalogues, journals, books, and the like.

I regularly keep in touch with Roger Malina, Itsuo Sakane, Jacob Lillemose, and
Eddie Shanken - mostly on Facebook. Douglas Dybvig, 3M inventor of the first
color copier, will be flown out here next week to Kendal at Hanover, NH, by his
medical doctor, pilot son, Rob Dybvig. I knew Rob as a kid, when he met Greg
Gundlach the son of Xerox inventor Robert Gundlach, in the 1970s, in our classroom.

Greg, who lives near me, is helping me publish the /Electric Garden/ this year.
The two boys, now older men, may meet again after 40 years. 3D image of Sonia by

Hi Sonia,

Nice to hear from you - I hope life is treating you well!

Your New Foundations issue was published back when Leonardo was with Pergamon
Press. As I'm sure you know, we are now published by MIT Press, and MIT Press
does not have back archives of the old Pergamon issues. Are you hoping to get
a copy of the entire issue to Bridget? That might be difficult. The issue has,
however, been digitized and is available through JSTOR and Project MUSE. I
think Bridget may have access to JSTOR or Project MUSE through SAIC. I suggest
she check with the SAIC librarian about accessing the issue that way - it
would be the simplest route to access the issue contents. If that is not
possible, please get back to me and we'll see if we can figure out something else.

Best,

Pamela

Bridget Esangga, editor in the Marketing and Communications office at the
School of the Art Institute of Chicago, is working on a story for the next
issue of E+D magazine. She wrote to me "My story is framed by our core value
http://www.saic.edu/about/corevalues/ "We Are Explorers," and I plan to
focus on the founding of the Art and Technology Studies department at SAIC.”

One of her 12 question for me to answer is, "Your curriculum has been used as
a model for other institutions. Can you describe the curriculum and how it
laid the groundwork for the field as a whole?”

I gave my Leonardo issues of "New Foundation for the 1990s" to the Fondation
Langlois in Montreal. I noted on the Leonardo back issues site that it does
not go back to that issue. Do you have any way to help her?
