Rajesh Rao is gefascineerd door "de moeder van alle kruiswoordpuzzels": het ontcijferen van het 4000 jaar oude Indus-schrift. Op TED 2011 vertelt hij hoe hij moderne computertechnieken inzet om de Indus-taal te lezen, de sleutel tot het begrijpen van deze oude beschaving.

Rajesh Rao seeks to understand the human brain through computational modeling, on two fronts: developing computer models of our minds, and using tech to decipher the 4,000-year-old script of the Indus valley civilization.
