just like ada could visualize the beauty of an equation or algorithm. she writes algorithms to show what a computer can do the new 1830s. so she realizes there's beauty in a mathematical phrase and she can visualize that just like she can visualize she walks in beauty like the night. that's what i meant by saying there's a beauty in both the arts the humanities on the one side and technology and science on the other side. >> host: you have a timeline in your book which kicks off with ada lovelace inventor of e-mail in here the -- >> guest: google -- >> host: et cetera, et cetera. what is it she contributed? >> guest: the main thing she does when she sees the beauty of the connection of arts to science, is that she comes up with a concept of a general purpose computer. for example, show travels through end land as -- england as a young woman and sees the mechanical looms and they use punch cards so the looms would weave beautiful patterns and her father was a luddite, meaning his only speech was -- they thought they put people out of work, but ada look a

jorge rios is ada and noelia's father. ): yes, the truth is, if you asked that question to every parent here, they would say they would leave this place if they could. i, of course, would like her to have a better life than the one i've had. and if she leaves, i hope she takes me with her! >> simon: what's hard to believe is that most of the parents and the people of cateura had never heard the children play. that was about to change. a concert was finally scheduled. there were banners in the streets, the local radio station was ready to broadcast. the church was transformed into a concert hall. the children wore their finest. this was, after all, opening night.

the staff as well as the planning commission for moving forward on this our office emts is the city's ada corridor and this year 2015 is actually the 25th anniversary of the finding of the ada it is most appropriate that at this point we should put in place a process to do something the planning department is actually been doing ongoing all along grant the modifications when it can to the planning code but it lacks a clear process four both the staff and members of the public to transmittal understand and have access to the benefits of that consideration this legislation is important to me pernicious i have worked with the planning department an individual cases to advocate for people who needed to make modifications to their home one of the most recent ones was barbara brendon in her that came forward with lou garters disease and wanted to live in her new year's eve valley home but in order to continue to live there she needed an elevator and under the zoning ordinance she wouldn't have been able to put one in the planning staff was helpful in walking her through the various process what

can come wound different disciplines like the arts and the sciences the way ben franklin did, the way ada lovelace did and make creative leaps of thet imagination. you know, we talk about innovation so often, it's almost drained of its meaning. and i've always like t to write about real people who are in a situation whether it with avril herriman after world war ii and you have to create a whole new world order of things like nato and the world bank and therl marshall plan or a steve jobs who says okay, we're now in a digital revolution, we have to make it personal. ..rds, were able to think different, think out of the box. i want to try to explore the creative mind and how it works. >> host: one of them themes -- themes in your book seems to be a connect to spirituality. >> guest: everybody believed they were part of something

there is ada access on the west side and it's closer to the entrance of the tower and the sidewalk is broader on that side. so again, think of pedestrian safety when you thinking about the locations. we feel that it would be a tremendous impact on the quality of our lives and our right to quiet enjoyment of our properties. and we even feel, some of us, i strongly do. i'm in real estate that it could diminish our property values. so imagine if you lived across from alta plaza park or lafayette park, would you really want a commercial venue on the corner of the park across from your home? but really the biggest issue is public safety and this is a no-brainer in our opinion. so if there must be further commercialization of an historic site, then we really implore you to place it on the west side where it's much further away from other residents. thank you. >> thank you. >> next speaker. >> hi. i'm john rit. i am a resident, one of the closest residents to the proposed eastside location. i live right on the greenwich steps and also want to take a moment to thank cassand ra and the vendor.
