Nature of Order Volumes 1-4, Christoper Alexander. <30 yrs old, as I believe I would be able to understand the organization of life and how to make better art. Even though I'm only on volume 1, as soon as I started it I wish I would've read this sooner.
I would add more but I think these volumes will keep you busy for awhile ;)
It appears GeNuero has found 47 million dollars from investment partner, Servier, and "GNbAC1 has successfully completed Phase IIa, demonstrating an optimal safety profile and encouraging signs of efficacy on a first small cohort of patients." http://www.geneuro.com/en/news.php#news
I had some BASIC programming classes in high school, loved everything about it. Although I didn't follow through with programming at the time, chose to be a recording engineer/producer instead. many failed starts with java and html books in the 90's. I find myself 45 and with a passion to really learn this time. I started learning Processing 5 months ago with the only online resources and a book.
It's absolutely one of the best things I've set out to learn. I find so many similarities between music engineering and programming it's kinda crazy. As many have said, It's never too old to learn... anything.
