I’ve been work­ing with genetic pro­gram­ming since the day after John Koza slapped an early copy of Jaws I into my hands in Santa Fe in 1993. Among other things, I teach peo­ple about evo­lu­tion­ary algo­rithms, meta­heuris­tics, oper­a­tions research, arti­fi­cial life, agent-based sys­tems design, engi­neer­ing emer­gent sys­tems, com­plex­ity research, and all that other engag­ing crap peo­ple who carry the mesquite scent of Santa Fe have been wav­ing their hands about for two decades now. I’m a co-founder of Vague Inno­va­tion, LLC, and a few other com­pa­nies you prob­a­bly won’t have heard of.
