Passion. Science. All things human...and some things not. Transhumanism and the Singularity...what's necessary to make it happen, and what happens afterward.
For now...hanging out when it's gorgeous outside...or inside...big fan of the evening-long philosophical conversations that go off on tangents...geeking out, computers, digital photo/media editing, any and all games. Creativity and novelty...taking ideas and getting them into reality. Making new mental connections.
Ontological troublemaking, guerrilla memetics, science/art/magick/what-have-you, and assorted randomness for good measure.
Getting off of this planet, and out of this meat. Eventually.
...like minds. different minds. anyone seriously interested in improving the human condition.
