      San Francisco, California

    • Creating space for a deeper understanding
      of time and technology

       

       

       

      Bringing engineering and philosophy and art together.

    • THE LONG NOW FOUNDATION

      I’m a director at The Long Now Foundation, a nonprofit fostering civilization-scale long-term thinking.

       

      Our projects include a mountain-scale 10,000-year mechanical clock, a long-term archive of human language, a popular lecture series, an award-winning cocktail bar, a global membership program, and much more.

       

      Our work hopes to inspire and encourage the long view.

       

       

       

       

    • SPEAKING

      I talk about these ideas all the time—at companies in California and conferences around the globe.

      I’ve spoken about our explorations in long-term thinking with audiences at Stanford, Google X, Xerox PARC, Github, and more.

       

      If you’re interested in booking a talk, send me a note.

       

       

       

       

       

       

    • WRITING

      I’m writing about these ideas more and more. Expect something here soon.

       

       

       

       

       

       

       

    • MUSIC

      In a past life, I played in a few serious rock bands.

       

      Some of that music lives on Spotify now, but

      most of it was released on compact discs.
