I wanted a corner of the internet that could hold more than a list of qualifications or a carefully edited professional biography.

There is the research, of course: the questions, experiments, unexpected results and the satisfaction of slowly understanding something complicated. But there is also the rest of life — books, aircraft, places, conversations, photographs and ideas that arrive at inconvenient times.

This website is a small attempt to bring those pieces together. It will change as I do. Some pages might be polished; others might simply be notes from along the way.

If you have found your way here, welcome. Have a look around.
