I have had a dozen different lives in one lifetime.
From each 'life' I have learned more about how the engine of evolution, which is the drive to multiply to the maximum, shapes human history in predictable, often unfortunate ways.

My joy is bringing classical music into young lives
My scholarly interest is making a photo-ethnographic record of traditional ways of life
My work is developing and using digital techology for the arts and media
My new on-line search format for fugitives will be a treasure hunt for the reward using visual clues.
My book on the traditional Irish way of life will be in a new e-book edition that is interactive and multi-media
