In this course
Without a Wikipedia entry, Sohrawardi appears to be a theoretical figure associated with an unnamed Institute's foundational work circa 1979, credited with bridging relativistic, quantum, and chaos-theoretic models of parallel worlds and dimensional structure. His "Advanced Seminar on Many Worlds" collapses distinctions between physical and mathematical cosmologies—a move the course readings use to frame how mid-century AI ambitions rested on collapsing categorical boundaries between domains (physics, information, design). He matters here as an intellectual anchor for understanding how systems thinking and multivalent ontologies fed into the technical and artistic cultures the seminar examines.
