I'm currently a lecturer in the
Computer Science Department of
Otago University in New Zealand. I work in the AI
group here. Prior to coming to Otago, I worked
from 1995 to 1998 in the Human
Communication Research Centre at
Edinburgh University, after doing a Masters and PhD at the the Department of Artificial
Intelligence, also at Edinburgh University. And prior to that, I
studied psychology and philosophy at Oxford University.
Teaching
In 2006 I'm involved in teaching the following courses:

If you want to travel up my nostril in 3-d virtual space, and you have
a VRML-compatible browser, then check this
out. But only if you really really want to. I haven't got round to
putting the rest of me online yet, but if I did you could expect
pointers to John Scofield, Marc Johnson, Bill Frisell, John
Abercrombie, Lyle Mays, sailing dinghies, picnics in the mountains,
Tonga, Greece, Provence, Italy, Brussels, Suffolk, Chimay, Grimbergen,
Duvel, Hoegaarden, Adnams, mistletoe, Odysseus, Wodwo, beakers
full of the Warm South, and Elves. And finally, two new things I have
managed to put online are my elf-like daughters
MIA and HELEN. You can see some recent
photos of Christmas 2002 here.
I've just discovered the Knott Coat of
Arms! And to go with it, a motto: "Dum spira spera", "While I
breathe I hope".
