So I'm here tonight talking to Howard bloom

Who's a fascinating person and an an author of many books and a polymath of sorts and we've known each other by?

Electronic communication for quite a long time, it's it's something exceeding a decade

but we've never met either in person or electronically by video until now and

Howard is definitely well he's a singular sort of person and he has a very broad range of knowledge

I would say and so what I'm going to do first is turn this over to him so that he can tell you a little

bit about himself and about what he's done and

Then we're gonna talk about his newest book which is called how I accidentally started the 60s and then well

We're gonna see where it goes from there, so Howard. Thanks for

Showing up here and let's let's see where we can go, so why don't you tell everybody about yourself?

Well, it's a pleasure to see you in person because I think it's about been about 14 years

maybe 15 years that we've known each other I

Put together a science of the soul initiative a long time ago, and and you were one of those kind enough to sign on

but I am the author of six books the first book is called the Lucifer principle a scientific expedition into the force of history and

People are buying it at because it feels like it was written yesterday

For tomorrow and people call it their Bible the second book is

global brain the evolution of masked mind from the Big Bang to the 21st century and

the office of the Secretary of Defense in the United States the reform based on one of the on that book and

brought in people from the State Department the Energy Department DARPA IBM and MIT

The third book is called the genius of the Beast a radical revision of capitalism

I preferred its original title which was reinventing capitalism porting soul the machine and that

Book the man who runs Dubai the Sheikh who runs Dubai

named a racehorse after one of that after that book the

His former minister of development who's on Dubai's ruling council and runs a thirty

Three billion dollar sovereign real estate company to built the tallest building in the world

went in front of the Arabian Business and Economic Forum and

told them there is a book that I particularly resonate with it's the genius of the Beast and

It contains the future of Dubai and he proceeded to read passages from that book and dr. APJ Kalam the eleventh President of India

Said that that book is a visionary creation

And this is despite the fact that the Sheikh who runs Dubai his former minister of development and dr. Abdul J

And I'm a Zionist atheist Jew so if there's any sign of hope for peace in this world

That's it I've done lots and lots of other things just a few months ago. I

Founded and shared the Asian space technology summit with a large

groups of representatives from china the chinese academy of space technology and from

England space program, I've done the weirdest variety of things you've ever seen in your life

Oh, and I should not forget once upon a time. I found it. I knew nothing about popular culture

I founded the biggest PR firm in the music industry

I used my scientific tools since it's my background of science my life is science my bones and my flesh our science and

It became the most successful PR on that firm in the record industry

So I worked with Michael Jackson Prince Bob Marley about Midler ac/dc

Aerosmith kiss Queen Run DMC Billy Joel Paul Simon Peter Gabriel David Byrne Run DMC Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five

You'd think you'd have to think that someone was making that up if you didn't know it was true

And then you also accidentally started the 60s apparently yes, and it was just reading that book about a week ago

And thought what did you think of it? Oh? I thought it was very funny

It was remarkable that you managed to have a foreword by or was it wasn't a foreword

I don't think it was caught it by Timothy Leary. Yes. Well. Let me tell you how that came about

There I was well. It was about 1981 and I

Started to go back to my science. Yes, I was running most successful PR firm the music industry

Taking unknowns like prints and establishing them as major stars or joan jett who've been turned down by 23 record companies

And we made her double platinum in a year and a half

But I finally got a little time for you to go back to my science

And then I was taking a bunch of journalists out to Long Island to see REO

Speedwagon and a bunch of them said bloom all these ideas you keep talking about us

you need to write a book and one of them took me under his wing and

Actually mentored me Timothy white who wrote for The Associated Press and Rolling Stone

So I started working on a book in 1984 about

1988 I had gotten up and running and written the first chapters on a vacation and then I came down

Well for two things happen first. I really needed to get out of publicity in the music industry

I had satisfied all of my intellectual questions because there were SATA questions. I was answer answering

What are the mass exhilarations the mass ecstasy's the mass emotions that are the forces of history that power?

that's what I was after and you see that in miniature with the Beatles or with Michael Jackson or with Prince so I

Gotten as far as I could I mean you two would approach me to represent them. I wasn't interested

Mick Jagger had sent an emissary talk about representing him. I wasn't interested I'd been through all of this so

Let me ask you. Let me ask you a couple of questions there, so I mean the first question would be I think

How what is it that you had done that had prepared you for that and how and how did you manage it?

So I guess that's two questions, but also what did you?

What did you learn from all of that well these were these are very good questions to prepare me for this Martin Gardner

From the time I was 10 I was reading two books a day

My teachers hated me because I was reading a book under the desk at all times and never ever paid attention

to them and many of these were science books and I read the Scientific American from cover to cover and

Had a column called mathematical games, and I learned what I know from mathematical games it taught me certain techniques

I was able to bring into the record industry, so so that's it's a hell of a stretch

I mean yeah, but singular story, so okay, so elaborate on that well what it taught is how to look for correlations?

mathematical techniques for finding correlations it gave you a gut feel of what a correlation looks like so that you

Go off to a world of mathematics of a cell or Kane that had no relationship to reality you could take the search for

Correlations into the real world I listen to music as obsessively from the time

I was about 10 years old my uncle and I used to stand next to a huge old

Burlwood radio that was as tall as I was at the time

And it had a giant speaker in Jordan in those days 12-inch speakers nobody to receive 12in speakers

but it had one, and we've listened to the classical music station in Canada because we were in Buffalo on the border and

we would compete to see who can identify a

Piece of music by its first four notes well often we could both identify the piece of music by its first note however

It was all classical music it was Rachmaninoff Barto Beethoven Stravinsky

Mozart stuff like that so I can't really say that I was properly prepared

Because I was hated by the other peak it's my age in Buffalo nior and my parents didn't have any time for me

So I was an outcast and the crowd of people that shut me out

Listen to popular music, so popular music. What started is with Elvis Presley

What was around before Elvis Presley and then moved on that was alien music to me?
