Slides from Lecture #1
  As was noted in class, one of the readings for the section on self-replication was not listed on the syllabus and was not available in the zip archive. The 3rd reading for this section can be found on the web here. This is a link to a thesis. We'll be reading Part III, pages 167-236. This gives a review of self-replication and discusses a project which built a self-replicating LEGO robot.
