Someone suggested that I write a short introduction of myself for people who don’t know me very well. Reading it would give the first-time visitor a few key points of context that could only otherwise be gotten by wading through a lot of archived posts. This is that introduction.
Nationality: British. Born: London, Career: 1968s—clapper boy at Gainsborough Studios; at the end of that year I left for the USA.
I now live in Sea Cliff, Long Island, New York, (USA).Though I am originally worked most of my live in Hollywood, but I consider New York my home. I have lived here for over ten years and I rather like it, especially in fall. I am 58 years old. I hold a bachelor of science in psychology from California Coast University, and a master of arts in educational psychology from California State University. Presently I am enrolled in another masters program at New York University, this time for computing. (PhD? Bah. To get one you have to learn more and more about less and less until you finally know everything about nothing.)
I still work in the film industry as a professional cinematographer nerd. DOP, Cameraman 1st and 2nd or a Gaffer lighting management system. I also am on a teaching program about teaching, people about technology, this is one of my favorite things to do, and thus I try to educate students and faculty about the ways in which computers can enhance teaching and learning. I am also generally fascinated with the social implications of internet communication.
I have a small still-camera collection. I have fondness for traditional film photography and its associated accouterments. I like to read, I like to cook and I also like buidling a desk-top computer.
