Episode 165 (9 Dec 2021): Adam Fisher (https://www.adamfisher.org) grew up in Silicon Valley playing Atari, programming computers, and reading science fiction. He still lives in the Bay Area but now spends his time thinking about the future, tracing its origins, and writing about it. Valley of Genius is his first book. His second book, Designing Ideas, is about Yves Behar. When he's not writing about the evolution of ideas, he works as a private historian, writing bespoke biographies for the world's tech billionaires.
