About Me


I am part machine, part mandrill, part human, part duck, and of course part Arabidopsis thaliana!
I am completely intrigued by the concepts of the fifth and sixth epochs when methods of biology will be integrated into our current creations and all patterns of matter and energy in the universe become saturated with intelligent processes and knowledge! If this does happen then I want to know what will happen to my clothes, and will I get a refund? Which leads me to clothes. I like to cut my own trousers far too short, and always regret it but wear them anyway! Generally I am partial to a bit of Belgian nerd chic and love to wear animal heads and Venetian masks, but only with a nice black suit!
It is worthwhile that I tell you I love to talk to stuffed animals; they are the wisest creatures on this planet. If this disturbs you then we probably don’t have much in common. I like a good cocktail, a damn fine cognac, fresh sushi, and to top it all off a night of robot-tango dancing. If anyone still wants to speak to me after this mini introduction then I advise you see a shrink first.
