About

Benjamin L. Russell is a patent translator currently working in Tokyo, Japan. He was exposed to Scheme and Haskell in college, and is especially fascinated by Scheme continuations. After graduating, he discovered Croquet, a Squeak Smalltalk-based technology for developing interactive virtual 3D worlds, and is currently interested in using this technology to create a virtual world in which users can not only play, but also work, study, and carry out financial transactions. His dream is to harbinger a virtual world version of Alvin Toffler’s “The Third Wave,” which he terms “The Fifth Wave.”
