Nicholas Paul

Nicholas thinks about thinking. He is currently researching and realizing a new project focused on the ‘thinking’ part of ‘long-term thinking’. Before this, Nicholas helped run The Long Now Foundation—the storied nonprofit fostering long-term thinking at the timescale of 10,000 years—where he served as both Director of Development and Director of Strategy, for nearly a decade. His background spans systems engineering and philosophy. He occasionally tours as a guitarist with Tōsh. He is currently a fellow at The Institute in San Francisco, California.
