about me

My photo
:-Derek
Creativity Technologist. I specialize in systems applied to computing, creativity, biology and human thought. In my spare time I write essays and fiction about the ramifications of the human mind never knowing everything about anything. Further favorite subjects: Mac computers, deceptive truth, art, futurism, natural beauty and troll trampling. Politically I call myself a 'Positive Anarchist' in that I believe in maximum choice. But I also believe in maximum responsibility for our choices, therefore being positive as opposed to irresponsible or negative.
