| Bio: | I'm a student in the Ph.D. program for Systems Science at Portland State University. The program is amazing and fascinating and difficult to describe. The wikipedia pages on Systems Theory and Complex Systems are a good start, as is Principia Cybernetica. My research interests include artificial life, theoretical biology, evolution and a bit of philosophy. I also work as a graduate assistant, doing programming, research and modeling. My long-term plan is to become a professor myself, so I can study and teach for the rest of my life, never to do "real" work again.
You can find me, by name or by my monkey email, on myspace or the also-rans, friendster and tribe. (HL Mencken would be proud.)
Some of my favorite words and pictures can be found on my web site.
