We are as Gods
[Brand is] a fascinating figure, probably equal parts visionary and oddball, and an endlessly entertaining raconteur.
We are as Gods
WE ARE AS GODS offers a deep dive into the many sides of Stewart Brand— the Zelig-like creator of The Whole Earth Catalog, an influential member of Ken Kesey’s “The Merry Pranksters,” and an early activist in the modern environmental movement. Brand, in his guise as cyber-utopian, coined the phrase “personal computer” and influenced many in Silicon Valley, including Steve Jobs, who have gone on to shape our modern world. Now in his 80s, Brand hopes to leave a legacy for the long-term future with his efforts to re-wild ecosystems by resurrecting extinct species. His former allies, however, believe he has gone too far.
