Abstract:
I am a foundationalist. I will talk about my foundational adventures from ages 7–77, in mathematics, piano, and chess. As expected, ambitions go far beyond limited achievements. The foundations of mathematics, by far the most highly developed and successful corner of foundations (with foundations of computer science a distant second), has a great future not only in and of itself, but also as a guiding force to ignite the other comparatively backwards foundational enterprises.
