I'm fifty something and live by the River Thames in London's Docklands.
Lately I've been exploring some other ideas for fun, including the notion of things which design themselves - see my Epigenesis page for some informal papers on this.
I also do a bit or writing.
For many years I was very involved in the Movement for Democratic Change, Zimbabwe's main opposition party.
For recreation I go used to go hang gliding, but haven't done so in recent years. I hold my Club Pilot's licence, having trained at CMS in Glenshee and at Lejair in Norfolk. I completed my Club Pilot and Hill Conversion in Lanzarote in 2000, with Lejair. I fly a Discovery hang glider and have now completed several hours of hill soaring, which is tremendous fun. Last time I flew I got hassled by a cloud, which was interesting.
I am very interested in the areas of mind, information, knowledge and thought. I presented a paper on some Artificial Intelligence concepts at the IEE in June 1995, including the idea of "virtual meaning". I finally found it again on the Internet (see Papers section).
