I'm an Australian, based in the Washington, DC, area of the United States. I spend a lot of time there with Jasmine, Australia's best-known speedsolver of the Rubik's Cube. Prior to the US, Jasmine and I were based in London, UK. We have also lived previously in the United States and Australia.

I have worked for an Australian business rules and compliance company since 1999 in Australia, the US and the UK. I have also lectured in IT and Law related topics at King's College, London, and at The Australian National University.

I have some more information and a list of publications available (pop-up window).

Maybe I don't need a CD burner any more

I still remember how cool I felt when I first got a CD burner -- and how many questions I fielded from interested friends.

But maybe I don't need a CD burner any more, because the Vestax VRX-2000 record cutter is a truly awesome combination of technology and retro chic. This device allows you to make your own records in the comfort of your lounge room! Blanks are somewhat more expensive than blank CDs or DVDs -- apparently about the cost of an imported 12-inch single.
