Hello, My name is Tom Kohut and I'm a sort of accelerationist. I've been following the discussion of accelerationism since version 2 began to coalesce in 2008. (V.1 being the work in the 60s/70s of Deleuze&Guatarri, Lyotard's *Libidinal Economy* and Baudrillard). I say "sort of accelerationist" because while I am widely sympathetic to the principles of accelerationism (not necessarily those of Williams and Srnick's Manifesto), I think the implications of accelerationist tendencies in art and thought need to be articulated and debated. I look forward to doing it here.
