I'm a designer / front-end web developer from Nashville, Tennessee. Check out my site here. My interest in Steem has slowly been growing since I had first heard about it, when I started seeing 
What I'm Into
Being your average 23 year old nerd, I'm really interested in all things technology and science. I have particular fascination with physics, chemistry, and neuroscience (even though I'm spending my days writing front end code!). Where these sciences intersect, areas like medicine and computer science (genetic engineering anyone?), is what I have really been diving deep into. I spend a good deal of time thinking about the future, and what our species looks like 10, 15, 50, or 100 years from now. I'm hoping it's much less authoritarian than now. I also enjoy studying history & ancient civilizations (everything from the Sumerians to the Egyptians, Greeks, and Mayans), psychology, economics, plants / herbs, and probably tons more that I'm not think of at the moment.
In the future, you will probably see some posts from me writing about the previously mentioned topics. In my humble opinion, when I look at the world and its history there is a beautifully rich interconnectedness between events and human behavior, infinite (or near infinite) causalities leading to the next moment, the very next collapsed wave-function. I hope to spur discussion and new philosophical ideas on how all of these topics can and do relate to one another. I don't necessarily consider myself a fatalist, but I do to some extent consider myself a Singularitarian and I do believe all of human knowledge is essentially building and leading to a moment in time where humans and Artificial Superintelligence will merge minds...where the global brain truly becomes a functional organism and posthumans potentially become the limbic system for the noosphere.
It's certainly an out there concept, but one that has plenty of data to support it - we can go further into that in the future though. For now, I am hoping this quick intro sums up who I am and why I am coming to Steem to share my ideas and content. I hope to get to know some more of you and perhaps make new friends who seek to make change and improve the world around them!
