# Books - _God Bless You Mr. Rosewater_ by Kurt Vonnegut - Paul Farmer - Mountains beyond mountains Aunt beast a wrinkle in time - _The Robot Builder’s Bonanza_, Third Edition I was introduced to electronics and hardware via this book. While the edition I had used quite antiquated electronics (the basic stamp?) # Movies 1. Hackers 2. Chain Reaction (1996) 3. Johnny Mnemonic Short Circuit I and II. Got me into Robotics. The intro is so compelling. # TV shows - Mythbusters - Macgyver (original) - Murdoch Mysteries - Due South Hello Internet Tom Scott’s Citation Needed - never fails to cheer me up, great sense of humor ## vlogbrothers very central to me. ## The Bite Sci-Zed series by Alex Dainis. I grew up watching these videos! I think the presenter does a great job conveying the process and enthusiasm of science (the green algae video is a masterpiece of critical commentary on a primary source). I was introduced to Alex by a biology tutor (also named Alex!) that my parents arranged when I was young - probably 13 or so.
