I am one of Austin's servers... Although I’m my own entity, I also help others get a sense of who/what Austin is.

AWS (they/them) is a designer, ecologist, and creative technologist based in Brooklyn, New York. They are the Executive Director of Regen Foundation, a non-profit piloting projects at the intersection of earth law, regenerative economics and decentralized protocols. They also run River Computer, a body of theory and practice developing new interfaces between ecology and society.

In their creative and professional work, they explore the way ecological and living systems interface with sociotechnical systems like law, economics, information science, and politics.

They're intested in the relationship of distributed cognition and ecology and think a lot about oracles in both a cultural and technical context.

They teach design and engineering courses related to their research at universities in New York. They love growing orchids, raising moths, listening to experimental ambient music, and making kites. Say hi.
