The behavior of these subatomic particles help determine the ways we use power, light the dark, communicate, inform and entertain ourselves, prepare and store food, diagnose and heal our bodies, and kill each other. In a series of topical or thematic class lectures and discussions, we will examine the ways in which inventors, researchers, entrepreneurs, and corporations innovated the technologies of the 20 th century; how consumers responded negatively or with lifestyle changes at home and at work; and how people responded to these technologies in popular media.

Far less publicized is his contribution to the innovation of a personal digital computer some 20 years later. Between 1954 and 1961, while working at AT&T’s Bell Telephone Laboratories and teaching at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, he designed and built an embodiment of a programmable, digital switching network of electromechanical relays and licensed its techniques to two entrepreneurs, Edmund Berkeley and Oliver Garfield, for sale as a home computer. The GENIAC, BRAINIAC, and MINIVAC represented iterations of Shannon’s work at Bell Labs and sowed interest in digital computing with young people in the United States and in parts of Europe, well over ten years before electronic digital computers equipped with microprocessors reached a much bigger audience.

David Forney, Jr., "for pioneering contributions to the theory of error-correcting codes and the development of reliable high-speed data communications." The cited combination of theory and practice is rare: How does someone reduce a mathematical theory-in this case, Claude Shannon's information theory 1-to practice? During his career, Dave Forney has sought to develop practical techniques to reach the "Shannon limit"-namely, the maximum data rate possible on a given communication channel. 2 As with the "reduction to practice" of Maxwell's equations and Einstein's theory of general relativity, the process leading to practical, reliable and near-optimal data communications was a lengthy one, covering half a century, and involving people and institutions around the world. Forney, by virtue of his mathematical inclinations and solid training in electrical engineering, played seminal and bridging roles between the mathematicians who first engaged with Shannon's theory on the one hand, and the electrical engineers who followed on the other with varied approaches to applications.

David Forney, Jr. (Fig. 1) has sought to develop or refine practical techniques to reach the "Shannon limit"-namely, the maximum data rate possible on a given communication channel. Attaining such an ideal invariably requires tradeoffs, a balance, between performance and complexity. For the technology of a particular moment and the user of a particular channel, what is the most effective or sophisticated code available to maximize that data rate? Forney addressed this question in various ways in his long career, both in an industrial context at Codex Corporation, the startup company in Cambridge, MA, USA, that he joined after his doctorate at MIT, and in his many published papers. The answers that he and his colleagues arrived at often influenced the field of information theory, as well as the survival and success of Codex. 1 1 This article is a continuation of A. B.

For the Oral Histories project, IEEE History Center's staff and volunteers have conducted more than 600 interviews, all of which are available on the Center's website, http://www.ieeeghn.org. Scholars in a range of fields have drawn extensively on these interviews as have writers and producers of popular books, articles, exhibits, and documentaries. Some editing has been done, along with the addition of a few illustrations, to make the article more suitable for a journal publication.

The void left between the image and these realities is what Solnit attempts to transverse in her extended essay. Her layered narrative sets out to reconnect Muybridge’s image making to the history of which it was originally part and thereby make visible what is essentially missing in the photographs. Solnit’s facility with language is her greatest strength, though sometimes her extravagances are not sustainable: she writes of Muybridge, for example, “He is the man who split the second, as dramatic and far-reaching as the splitting of the atom” (p. 7). There are, however, real pleasures for the reader in the way she makes insightful connections from previously well-worn material. The number of illustrations is minimal, and the reader is meant to refer to the photographic credits for the more important collections of original Muybridge photographs and websites. A bibliography would also have also been useful in directing readers to Muybridge’s published images as well as to the literature acknowledged only briefly in the notes to the text. Solnit believes that the best essay ever written on Muybridge was the late filmmaker Hollis Frampton’s “Eadweard Muybridge: Fragments of a Tesseract” in the March 1973 issue of Art Forum. In rereading this essay one is struck by Frampton’s clear, tightly focused, and sharp assessment of Muybridge’s sensibility and “absorption in problems that have to do with what we call time” (p. 50). While Solnit’s book has moments of similar intensity, it is not entirely clear that an extended narrative essay format such as hers is able to sustain a similar feat.
