CS 61A The Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs
Instructor Brian Harvey
Spring 2008
Introduction to programming and computer science. This course exposes students to techniques of abstraction at several levels: (a) within a programming language, using higher-order functions, manifest types, data-directed programming, and message-passing; (b) between programming languages, using functional and rule-based languages as examples. It also relates these techniques to the practical problems of implementation of languages and algorithms on a von Neumann machine. There are several significant programming projects, programmed in a dialect of the LISP language.

The Modernest Muse
The Bauhaus, Weimar Germany’s iconic modernist school, which operated from 1919 to 1933, pioneered the integration of industry, science and design. This paper focuses on László Moholy-Nagy (1895–1946), one of the most prominent Bauhaus artists and pedagogues, who played a key role in formulating the Bauhaus philosophy. Moholy- Nagy had a particular enthusiasm for formalist photography and led and developed the Vorkurs (preliminary course), the cornerstone of Bauhaus pedagogy. While often characterized as a utopian rationalist in traditional art historical accounts, Moholy-Nagy’s photographic formalism and visual pedagogy, which he developed in Painting Photography Film (1925) , New Vision (1938) and Vision in Motion (1947) , are not pleas for rationalism; they reveal visionary insights into the mechanisms of visual perception and the features of creative cognition, such as disinterestedness, conceptual recombination, categorical reduction and play.

Postsecondary education and the San Francisco (SF) Bay Area economy are varied and complex – and they are integral to each other’s success. Colleges and universities of all types educate and train a diverse workforce, and the Bay Area employs highly skilled workers. Faculty and graduates serve as innovators and entrepreneurs; industrial labs push the boundaries of research and knowledge. These two “fields” share important values, including a keen interest in developing and using knowledge and a reliance on networks of professionals.
