將文科情懷帶入"極客"技術(shù)

我認(rèn)為我們(對計(jì)算機(jī))的主要貢獻(xiàn)是將文科觀點(diǎn)帶入計(jì)算機(jī)的使用。如果你真的看看Macintosh的易用性，背后的動(dòng)力不僅是給人們帶來易用性-使當(dāng)時(shí)更多的人可以使用計(jì)算機(jī)做非傳統(tǒng)的事情-而且是給人們帶來漂亮的字體和排版，給人們帶來圖形。。。使他們可以看到漂亮的照片、圖片或藝術(shù)品，等等。。。幫助他們交流。。。我們的目標(biāo)是為傳統(tǒng)上“極客”技術(shù)和“極客”帶來一個(gè)文科的視角和文科的大眾。

作為文科的計(jì)算機(jī)科學(xué)

在我看來……科學(xué)和計(jì)算機(jī)科學(xué)是文科，是每個(gè)人都應(yīng)該知道使用的東西，至少在他們的生活中使用，而不應(yīng)該被歸于5%人使用如角落的東西。每個(gè)人都應(yīng)該接觸，每個(gè)人都應(yīng)該在某種程度上掌握，這就是我們?nèi)绾慰创?jì)算和計(jì)算設(shè)備。

liberal arts：本義，自由人應(yīng)具有的學(xué)識；引申義，文科。

Computer Science Is A Liberal Art

On bringing liberal arts sensibilities to "geek" technology

"I think our major contribution [to computing] was in bringing a liberal arts point of view to the use of computers. If you really look at the ease of use of the Macintosh, the driving motivation behind that was to bring not only ease of use to people — so that many, many more people could use computers for nontraditional things at that time — but it was to bring beautiful fonts and typography to people, it was to bring graphics to people ... so that they could see beautiful photographs, or pictures, or artwork, et cetera ... to help them communicate. ... Our goal was to bring a liberal arts perspective and a liberal arts audience to what had traditionally been a very geeky technology and a very geeky audience.??

On computer science as a liberal art

"In my perspective ... science and computer science is a liberal art, it's something everyone should know how to use, at least, and harness in their life. It's not something that should be relegated to 5 percent of the population over in the corner. It's something that everybody should be exposed to and everyone should have mastery of to some extent, and that's how we viewed computation and these computation devices.??
