My name is Wes von Hochmuth and I am a 21 yr-old college Junior at the University of Puget Sound in Tacoma, Washington, nearby Seattle. I’m studying History and Neuroscience with a minor in Computer Science. It’s an interesting combination. Tell you the truth, I am studying History because of my interest in Futurology and Futurism. Details aside, a thesis of mine has been, “If we study the past with history, how is it we study the future, history’s opposite?”
This interest has driven me to start a community of my own, called r/Futurology under the name Xenophon1 on Reddit.com. Please check us out and subscribe,
I’ve a passion for everything from A.I., to Transhumanism, Singularitarianism, and Futurism. We’ve grown exponentially in just 6 months, following Singularity-like growth curves. I am always looking for mods and help running the sub so PM me if your at all interested. I am a local Oakland, CA, native and I recently just applied for an internship at the Singularity Institute for this summer and I’m crossing my fingers. I have read through most of the sequences and a lot of the historical best posts, and look forward to showing up at the Wednesday Berkeley LW meetups soon.
I discovered LW through a random friend on reddit, who I noticed was intelligent and asked him to be a Moderator on Futurology. It turns out he is an intern at The Millenium Project for Global Futures Studies and Research.
Its a pleasure and an honor to be a part of the LW community, amongst rationalists and a lot of brilliant people.
