Happy Birthday Hugo!
Richard Feynman has long been one
of my heroes because he combines
such a relentless and brilliant
intelligence with such a great sense of humor. That’s why I sent the Feynman
books.
He,also, shares somethings in common with another one of my favorite
people
August Mobius
Augie, as we liked to call him at
Mobius Company, was similar to
Richard in the diversity of his
pursuits and understandings and
most remarkable in that, like Richard,
he was able to capture public attention and receive acclaim, awards and recognition for his ability to not only express his concepts logically and mathematically but creating visual
diagrams and symbols that would allow him to be appreciated and grasped
by the masses.
In 1972, my first company Vision Works
had run its coarse and I needed to
start a new company. I wanted it to have unlimited possibilities. I was
aware of the infinite surface of the
Mobius strip and decided to adopt the name. There wasn’t much information
so I sent a german friend in search
of Augie. She traveled around Germany gathering information. Some of it is contained in the envelope in the front of the book that I sent you, MOBIUS AND
HIS BAND. The book appeared much later.
The metaphors.net site (also, petercraycroft.com) contains more information on Augie, the Company Mobius and the open, experimental
approach employed by Richard, Augie, companies and so many individuals and groups collectively, to benefit life on the planet earth.
