Randy Pausch is a world-renowned computer science professor at Carnegie Mellon and cofounder of the school's Entertainment Technology Center, and in a matter of months he will be dead from the ravages of pancreatic cancer. In his last lecture to the CMU community, the charismatic 46-year-old shared his thoughts on the unshakeable power of imagination, will, and childhood dreams.
The lecture is a series of personal reflections and stories, deeply personal without being morbid in the least---Pausch has the audience howling with laughter frequently throughout his 90-minute talk.
