Dear Menahem, In 2016, it will be exactly 100 years since Albert Einstein created his Theory of Relativity, changing the world with the power of one man’s intellect and vision. There are five initiatives honoring the Einstein legacy. The Einstein Museum will be the first institution dedicated to celebrating the ideals of one of the world’s greatest scientists and humanitarians. The Next Einstein competition awards those whose enterprising spirit, curiosity and creativity best capture the ideals of Einstein. Genius: 100 Visions Of The Future, a once-in-a century publishing event will showcase the world’s greatest thinkers in the world’s first 3D-printed book. The Dinner Of The Century, an incredible private evening strictly limited to the 100 visionary contributors and sponsors of Genius. Finally, Einstein IMAX 3D is a celebration of the power of human imagination coming to the only screen big enough to capture the story of the world’s greatest genius. We’re approaching a small number of global visionaries with the opportunity to play a role in the Einstein initiatives. You could help create a home for the continued sharing of scientific and humanitarian ideals, for everything that the name Einstein has always stood for, and always will. We look forward to discussing with you how we can proceed together.

Yours sincerely,

Canadian Friends of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem

100 Visions. A Once In A Century Event.

Genius: 100 Visions of the Future To celebrate the 100th anniversary of the publication of Einstein’s Theory of Relativity, The Hebrew University and the Einstein Museum planning group are embarking on another publishing milestone: The collected vision of the greatest 100 thinkers, artists, scientists, business leaders and human visionaries of our time, in a single volume. But it will be more than that – it will also be the world’s first entirely 3D printed book, with every one of its 100 pages devoted to one distinguished contributor’s vision, collectively a vision of our time, and all forming a three dimensional portrait of Einstein himself. It’s the creation of world famous designer Ron Arad, and the work of benefactors and visionaries from around the world. One of those visionaries could be you.
