Summary CHARLES H. BENNETT (b. 1943) is an American thinker, physicist and information theory pioneer. But that you can discover on the Internet. In this installment of Pioneers doc series Bennett will tell a story of the ambiguity of the past, and the complexity of the present. Strolling in the autumnal woods of Massachusetts we shall follow some tiny events like waves shaping the surface of a forest lake and ask whether they're doomed to be entirely forgotten - or not. ABOUT THE SERIES Pioneers is one and only film project devoted to the most unorthodox contemporary thinkers who have had the courage to challenge current paradigms. The emotions of discovering and stress-testing new theories; the passion which prompts one to go against the expectations of others, against the "publish or die" model; the joys and sorrows of exploring frontiers of the known and the unknown - this is what Pioneers is about.
