About me
I have a B.A. in philosophy from St. Olaf College. My post-graduation experiences have ranged from day trading to working on a patent for audio equalization. Like most people who study philosophy, I'm interested in quite a few rather disparate things.
Interests
- Wikis
- Future technological change (I find Ray Kurzweil's "The Singularity is Near" to be a very important, if somewhat naive, book- my review is here)
- Frontiers in virtual worlds and games (i.e. Second Life and Spore)
- Algorithmic content analysis
- Various aspects of biology including neurology, genetics, and evolution. I have a particular interest in how constraints from physical chemistry and biochemistry may limit cellular and organismal complexity.
- 'Prize philanthropy'
These are merely interests. I am far from being an expert about any of these things. Some day, perhaps. :)
I blog at http://moderndragons.blogspot.com/.
Citizendium
I'm a constable here on Citizendium. Please let me know if you need a hand with something.
To Do List
I plan on being involved in the Topic Informant Workgroup, and I'd also like to sink my teeth into some articles. In the longer term, well, I'm trying to figure that out.
