Ideally we have already rewritten our novels several times and would like to take them to the next level. (To be clear, this group is not for folks who "want to write" or "want to finish" a novel.)

If you would also like to discuss new books, ideas and authors with SF&F fans, this group is for you! Join us each month for a new book, decided by poll.

The Tasty Book Club pairs good books with good food. We read a variety of genres: silly books, smart books, memoirs, literary fiction and, yes, we even once read a book about werewolves. We pair the book with food or countries that appear in the book. If a book takes place in Greece, we eat Greek food. If we read a book that takes place in the American South, we go for BBQ. And so on. We aim for diversity among our book choices. Everyone is welcome to suggest books, but preference is given to b …

1 attendingLike the fictional brain in a vat, artificial minds are useless if they are not connected to the real world. Embodied cognitive systems require bodies and worlds where they can interact, explore, and learn. An open framework which connects artificial minds to devices in the real or virtual worlds is therefore of paramount importance. This undertaking involves both building the framework, a mind server, and building cognitive systems, minds, which can be instantiated on demand to control mobile d …
