Seeing is Deceiving

About Me

I'm on the faculty at Charles University in Prague, and the Academy of Science of the Czech Republic. I teach teaching, psychology, linguists, and languages. And I teach models how to sound pretty. I'm alive because of war. My Dad was a Green Beret (USASF) in Vietnam, he taught me well. I used to work with chimps and monkeys in a psycholgy lab. I like apes that can do math, autistic children, cognitive psychology of humans and animals, altering my neurochemistry, sexology, and analytical philosophy. I like experiencing colors, shapes, sounds, tastes, and ideas arranged in interesting ways, the effect of gravity on time, vibrators. http://www.impeachbush.org/site/PageServer
