I teach creativity and technology at a UK university where I'm a part-time senior research fellow. I also work freelance as a web developer/designer/info-architect, and collaborate with others to make art with technology. I keep an overview on emerging web technologies and post interesting snippets on Twitter and (more rarely) Tumblr, am a problem solver, and a creative generalist who likes to summarise and simplify information. I prefer Ruby and Python but have worked on legacy PHP. I can write HTML/CSS in my sleep, have co-developed in Angular and Ember, and use nanoc as a static website generator. I also enjoy using Processing and Javascript vector drawing library Raphael. I've been active on StackOverflow for some years. I also play music, write short stories, enjoy backgammon, love cats (but am allergic to them) and appreciate the entire natural world...
